Add more Radio stations
-
The number of radio stations supported is very limited. Access to more radio stations would highly be appreciated. Or just being able to search for a radio station and mark it as a favorite (and pop-up under Radios) would be a great improvement.
You could use https://www.radio-browser.info/ to get a list of stations. They supply an API. Sadly enough, my C++ skills are to minimal to support you in implementing this.

I agree I would like to see for features available for the Radio Stations and the ability to add more varied stations. For example BBC Radio 4. I can get the link to play in VLC but not Strawberry. See below:
http:\as-hls-ww-live.akamaized.net\pool_904\live\ww\bbc_radio_fourfm\bbc_radio_fourfm.isml\bbc_radio_fourfm-audio%3D96000.norewind.m3u8
Thanks!

@linuxdancer as a workaround you can create playlists holding streams. Create an empty file and add following lines to it:
#EXTM3U #EXTINF:0,🎵 BNR Nieuwsradio https://playerservices.streamtheworld.com/pls/BNR_NIEUWSRADIOAAC.pls
Replase BNR Nieuwsradio with the title of your stream (e.g. BBC4) and replace the url (https://...) with your url.
You can repeat the last two lines as often as you like to hold more streams Now save the file with a .m3u extensions (for example Radio.m3u)
Go into Strawberry and select Playlist - Load playlist (or Ctr+Shift+O) and you can load your playlist.
Doulbe click on the star in the tab and it will remember this playlist.Success!!

Hi I created a text file in notepad:
NewsRadio.m3u
I just copied what you gave me without changing it:
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:0, BNR Nieuwsradio
https://playerservices.streamtheworld.com/pls/BNR_NIEUWSRADIOAAC.plsI get the following with the warning symbol:
This appears to be a text file
../gst/playback/gstparsebin.c(2409): type_found (): /GstPlayBin3:pipeline-9-pipeline/GstURIDecodeBin3:uridecodebin3/GstURISourceBin:urisourcebin8/GstParseBin:parsebin7: ParseBin cannot parse plain text files
Am I suppose to use a different program to create the file other than notepad?
Thanks!

@linuxdancer my mistake, this error is Strawberry's way to say that the stream is invalid. My mistake, try https://stream.bnr.nl/bnr_mp3_128_20

That works thanks. Issue is as far as I can see is it does not work for many streams. Namely the m3u type stream. MP3 streams work just fine. The m3u format is the most common form of stream now it seems.

This has more stations...
visit radio-browser website to get current URL's and test them in your location... that's important.That's why Strawberry links built in is not a great idea - because stations change protocols and links.

Thanks, nice list! Still have issues with the m3u8 files playing but the others work. Hopefully a newer revision of Strawberry will fix this.
-
I would like this as well. Though to be fair, somaFM is the best.

@arno Thanks, SomaFM is great! But not so much for talk radio. Also why be restricted to what you can hear?
