Foobar 2.1 preview's Internet Radio Window radio-browser-cache

The new Internet Radio Window/Browser introduced in Preview 2023-07-10 is a welcome and useful addition for radio stream fans;  however, can you please implement an optional setting to "flush cache on exit" ?  Files in the profile/radio-browser-cache folder build up rapidly after extended use, and only the "Known Stations" tab entries can be manually deleted with the GUI.  Thanks!

Thank you for the Internet radio panel - it's just a miracle!

Beware--if you have a playlist loaded and then invoke the Radio Browser, playing a station from one of its tabs while it is open will ERASE your loaded playlist, grrrr..  Either be sure you have the "Default" list loaded, REMEMBER the "Undo" command, or have a playlist locking script loaded like available with Smooth Playlist Manager.  Or have a Portable backup, which I am off to restore right now (sigh!).

EDIT:  I found what was going on, I just got "lucky."  It turns out when you open the Internet Radio Browser window and play from one of the tabs, it creates its own playlist named "Internet Radio"--and if you, like me, already HAD named a previous playlist "Internet Radio", it will get knocked out by the new one.  So be sure that before using this you do NOT already have a playlist named "Internet Radio."  A playlist lock as mentioned before will protect your original, but it will still create a second playlist of the same name for itself.  Hubba-hubba.

sveakul,
I think the developer will improve this feature step by step over time.
The main thing is that now it is possible to organize a separate layout in fb2k for listening to radio streams.
For example, as already exists for tracker music and other things... and maybe someday it will be ::) for watching video streams... :-X
fb2k is developing, improving and it's great!

Think millionaire, but with cannons.

@Peter:  please add a "minimize" button to the radio browser so it can be easily moved out of the way when copying its result (s) to another, "static" playlist in Foobar.  Thank you.

Would it be possible for the new Internet Radio UI Element to remember the column widths? Currently on restart they revert back to default.
Thanks for adding this!

OK, so do I understand this correctly:
as of now fb2k does not yet index the favicons provided by the radio-browser.info API and that's why you're supplying them on your own via the RAR file collection?
That would explain why I failed so badly to make those icons appear. ;)

Yes I will post you a complete explanation to get the radio stream work with radio cover and his playlist

The new internet radio panel is a great addition to the controls.
It would be nice if this panel were available as a single component for f2k 1.6.**.

The 2.1 Preview 2023-07-20 adds the ability to right-click, "bookmark" streams in the Internet Radio search results window--which means they get added to the Known Stations window, even if "Add all played streams to the list" is unchecked.  This is a good feature for keeping chosen streams available until they are added to a regular playlist (for example).

Right-clicking the bookmarked stream and choosing "forget" removes it from the Known Stations window;  however, it does NOT remove the stream reference from the profile/radio.sqlite file, where they continue to build up just like "removed" playlist entries in the metadb.sqlite file which was posted about last month (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php/topic,124371.0.html).  Isn't it possible to make sqlite actually DELETE an entry from its database files when requested, instead of just hiding them from the GUI??

I have found that with Soma Radios, these open after several seconds especially with the 32-bit foobar2000 version:





While with the others whose images I attach there are no problems.















Strange.
