You can do this with MinimServer and any UPnP control point by creating a .m3u playlist with an internet radio station URL as a playlist entry. For example, to play BBC Radio 3, the entry would be:

#EXTINF:-1,BBC Radio 3
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r3_aaclca.pls

To select the radio station, you would navigate to

nn playlists > playlist name > station name

and then play the radio station as if you were playing a local server file. You can find a list of European station URLs on this page.

Is everyone following what I am on about here? LOL!

You can't use JRiver as a UPnP control point in the normal sense. If you try to do this, it will read the complete library from the UPnP server and from then on you will get the native JRiver experience.

Note: The current release of MinimServer doesn't support this. It will be supported in the next release. See this post.
