Title: Cant Stream Some Radio m3u or pls files
Post by: Dude.Abides on 2019-01-13 19:51:31
hey peeps

I'm trying to stream this m3u radio station through foobar

https://www.internet-radio.com/station/chronixgrita/

which provides the following links for

Windows Media Player
http://www.internet-radio.com/servers/tools/playlistgenerator/?u=http://192.99.35.93:6332/listen.pls?sid=1&t=.m3u

Winamp & Itunes
http://www.internet-radio.com/servers/tools/playlistgenerator/?u=http://192.99.35.93:6332/listen.pls?sid=1&t=.pls

Normally i would go for the Winamp link, paste it in or download / click the file to run

but with both the m3u and the pls links I just get the message

Unable to open item for playback (Unsupported file format) :
"http://192.99.35.93:6332/listen.pls?sid1"

Its not a huge issue as I can get the file running through VLC, however I made a custom desktop using Rainmeter then made a click menu with my favourite radio stations using foobar hidden on the system tray and this is the only link / station I cant get to play.

any idea's if I maybe just need to download an additional component to make this work ?

ignore this post

I tried simplifying the link to

http://192.99.35.93:6332/listen.pls

ie
click file
click play location
paste
http://192.99.35.93:6332/listen.pls
save as m3u
:D
