    Tunapie2 won't display any Shoutcast Radio channels

    i am trying to list radio channels in Tunapie2 and it won't list anything. It will display TV stations, but not radio.

    I removed the software and Re-installed it with the same problem. I even removed most files from my .tunapie folder under my home and just left prefs and favorites alone. I did this before re-installing the software.

    Icecast works fine, but not Shoutcast Radio.

    Is this a server problem?

    Shoutcast recently changed to 2.0 API...so there is probably a new streaming address. See...http://www.shoutcastblog.com/2010/07...tcast-2-0-faq/

    Probably some API issues because Exaile isn't listing any Shoutcast radio stations either

    Currently I just go to www.shoutcast.com to listen

    This is driving me batty in Exaile, I can load them manually the http's as new playlists, but the shoutcast radio listing won't refresh the list of stations. Maybe because it has over 44,000 radio stations, it freezes or just takes a long time to refresh ? Don't right click on refresh, it breaks it.

    It's clear now.

    The new API's license agreement forbids third party software from using it.

    I can always use IceCast or use the Shoutcast website for playing live streams.

    That just sucks....

    This was one of those "minor" apps that I use pretty much constantly.

    Thanks to the author for doing it, it was perfectly useful.

    i used the above in the rhythmbox plugins folder and opened the setup.sh file in terminal had to click the plugin check mark and restart the computer for it to work all the way perhaps you can jury rig the mentioned link to work with tunapie some how but rhthmbox also has a pandora plugin and such there is a way the above can make a favorites list to export also

    Re: Tunapie2 won't display any Shoutcast Radio channels

    I just figured out a solution, sort of. Go to shoutcast, do a search for whatever, in my case I was looking for coast to coast am streams. click on a link, and instead of open with, click save as, and you can save the .pls rename the prefix to something of your choice, I use the station or site name then what I do is mplayer -playlist file.pls
