[MMM-RadioDe] - Simple Web Radio.de player

@Steff said in [MMM-RadioDe] - Simple Web Radio.de player:

@Disturbx Wanted to post a reply already yesterday, but was too stupid to use git push…, I modified the behavior slightly, letting the module wait until the others are started, added as well some changes. I put them to the develop branch, so if you change your git to develop, you can try whether this helps.
How to do:
Enter local directory of module --> git checkout develop --> git pull
Why develop branch ? I did only test on my development platform, but not on the Raspi itself.
Feedback highly welcome

Cant seem to get it working mate :(

Hi Steff,

I have just tested your module which is working quite good so far. The are two things I would like to address:

• I´m running it with station “ffhlounge” and sometimes there are short dropouts while playing the stream (CPU is between 2 and 4% and free memory at 44%), maybe you can test if it happens on your side as well, I have a dedicated radio where I can run the stream without dropouts
• while running the mirror in dev mode to debug a problem with another module I found some 403 errors for the RadioDe module. Can you also have a look at them? Attached there is a screenshot.

best regards,
F.

Just integrated another player (https://www.muses.org/setup) using iFrame which is working without dropouts. Maybe a problem with radio.de?

Is it possible to make a kind of “Radio Stations” list to select from. Or do we just add the module a couple of times with on each line another radio station?

Hello everybody.
How do I manage the antenne Bayern is played.
I have opened the Station once in the browser and when I start the MagicMirror then comes again antenna Niedersachsen.

@Sputnik I suspected, that maybe my Wifi connection is not good enough but the speedtest shows 11-14Mbt download speed and about 4 Mbt upload speed which I believe should be sufficient.

My present situation is a follows: I get the radio station to play but I got many many drop-outs.
I tried iFrame as an alternative platform to play radio and I have the same problem. Changing the radio station or link doesnt help either.
I dont think its an issue with the module but probably more with the Pi resourcs. My internet connection clocks at >10 Mbyte download and>4upload speed hence I dont think thats the issue.
Now how to find out the actually cause ?
Could I try to use a lower quality (bitrate) radio stream instead or allocate more hardware resources ???
Please help !
