Is there any working online Radio module available? Tried couple of modules but no luck

@tanvir586 Hi,
i developed MMM-MplayerRadio a couple of years ago. It still should be functional.

@wishmaster270 Hi, tried your one. But no sound. Installed vlc still no sound. Will share my config once I go home. Thanks for replying mate

@tanvir586 Had a lot of problems with the sound of Raspberry as well. It do not think that it is a problem with the modules it might be a problem with the asound or pulseaudio configuration of the operating system.

If you use Buster release sound is configured by asound, if you use Bullseye it is PulseAudio.

Do you use the build in sound of the board or a external sound card?

Nop… It’s pulseaudio too…

@wishmaster270 Hi just checked. its bullseye. and my config is

{
		module: "MMM-MplayerRadio",
		header: "Radio",
		position: "top_center",
		config: {
			//autoplay: 0,
			stations: [
				{
					title: "Al Mubarak",
					url: "https://emasjidlive.co.uk/listen/almubarakradio",
					logo: "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ac/Antenne-bayern-logo.png",
				},
			],
		},
	},

@bugsounet Oh, good to know. I use Bullseye for a while but currently only have a mirror running without audio.

@tanvir586
In default mode (which you use) mplayer is used. As i wrote in the documentation mplayer has caused a lot of problems with many streams. You could try to switch to vlc instead which is working much better but does not provide the current stream information.

	{
		module: "MMM-MplayerRadio",
		header: "Radio",
		position: "top_center",
		config: {
			//autoplay: 0,
                        customCommand: "/usr/bin/vlc",
                        customCommandArgs: ["-I","dummy","###URL###"],
			stations: [
				{
					title: "Al Mubarak",
					url: "https://emasjidlive.co.uk/listen/almubarakradio",
					logo: "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/ac/Antenne-bayern-logo.png",
				},
			],
		},
	},

Make sure to install vlc first:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y vlc

@wishmaster270 Hi I’ve tried this aswell. And I installed the vlc. But still not working. I’ll try it again now.

[tanvir586]

@wishmaster270 ok. Didn’t work. I have another mirror with no speaker. And that’s os 11.2. I can copy that sd card and try on my new mirror. Do you think it will work or I should do something on this one?
