(11-01-2025 14:10)simoncn Wrote: [ -> ]You need to create a .m3u8 playlist file containing the radio stream URLs. This is a plain text file with contents like the following:

Code:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,[Linn] Linn Radio Classical
http://radio.linnrecords.com/cast/tunein.php/linnclassical/playlist.pls
#EXTINF:-1,[RPmain] Radio Paradise Main
http://stream.radioparadise.com/aac-128
.... etc.

The names in brackets [ ] are stream IDs. You can choose any names for these. They are needed to tell MinimServer that you want to use MinimStreamer to play the radio stream. Place this file anywhere in your music library.

To add a radio station logo, create a .jpg or .png file whose filename matches the stream name (not the stream ID) and place this file in the same folder as the .m3u8 playlist file. For example, the Linn Radio Classical stream could have a logo image in the file Linn Radio Classical.jpg or Linn Radio Classical.png.

After doing the above, do a MinimServer rescan.

If you are using the JPLAY app to play a MinimStreamer radio stream on your IOS device, it will probably not work because of a JPLAY issue. I reported this problem to the JPLAY developers some months ago but it is still not fixed. You should be able to play the MinimStreamer radio streams on some other renderer.

Hello

I followed your instructions to create the folder with the list of Feeds as you have indicated me from the text editor



then I created the Flux_Web_Radios folder
that I have integrated in the Media directory where are all the music





small precision

I took the Minimserver subscription and installed MinimStream

I created the path of the directory in minimServer




here is the configuration as it is at the time of installation

May I have forgotten something?


I did a Rescan del library of Minimserver

Uninstall the server and open the JPLAY IOS application, resynchronize data and well no data from Web Flux Radios

it doesn’t work....



thank you for returning

I see two problems with your setup:

1) Your playlist includes stream IDs but does not include stream names. For example, instead of this:

EXTINF:-1, [Europe 2 Hits]

you should have something like this:

EXTINF:-1, [Europe 2 Hits] Europe 2 Hits

The stream ID is ususally a shorter form of the stream name but it can be the fiull stream name or anything you choose.

If you don't provide a stream name, the radio stream can be played but MinimServer won't be able to match it with the logo image file.

2) You have named the playlist file Flux Web Radios.m3u8.txt. The filename should be Flux Web Radios.m3u8 so that MinimServer can identify it as a playlist file.

Thanks for this. As with other streams I have tried, this stream is playing correctly on other renderers but fails to play on the iPad.
