    What is mms protocol and how do I enable it?

    Specific protocol is missing when I try play internet radio stream on VLC.

    Stream of code if someone can make some sense of it: https://pastebin.com/QQeuaQq3

    According to wikipedia mms is the "Microsoft Media Server" protocol. You don't need to do anything in VLC to enable it, VLC (and mplayer and mpv and a host of others) can use it. Looking through the content of your pastebin I see a reference to a playlist fmsagami.asx. if that's the same playlist I found after a bit of searching (one that contains "mms://122.29.249.8/fmsagami_simul"), you're probably a victim of geo-blocking (unless you're in Japan ...).
