just to recap on how to use


1● copy and paste above text as classical.lua save in home folder

you may then need to create lua folder and extensions folder too:

cd ~/.local/share/vlc/ ; mkdir lua ; cd ~/.local/share/vlc/lua ; mkdir extensions

2● then to move to right place

sudo mv classical.lua ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions

3● go to vlc/view/ streaming radio player

4● to edit list

sudo gedit ~/.local/share/vlc/lua/extensions/classical.lua

and make your changes/additions etc




to get back here enter in search:
► "classical.lua" or "Arabesque"


also can be turned into a pls file see here

I notice that very few stations (e.g., http://streaming.rtbf.be:8000/mus3128xrtbf.m3u) will not play through audacious, so I use Exaile or Totem as secondary players. (Makes me a dinosaur, I'm sure.)

Oddly enough this plays fine with Audacious for me although a little laggy from this end of the world....

i just updated the list of classical stations i compiled earlier... links change from time to time

here is the up-to-date version ... still all 128k or higher
