@wishmaster270 Wow this looks great, I like it. But can i have a request please?
Can you try to make a version with xmms2 player ?. I want to use this to listening aacp or mp3 radio stream and mplayer is so slowly I push button to start and he start playing radio after nearly one minute. And if you can implement a volume graph and volume control will be great.
Thank you.

Hi,

normally mplayer is very fast. Can you try to reduce the caching with the “mplayerCache” option either for one station or globally for all. The default value is 512 and may be a little high.

There already exists an module to control the volume MMM-Volume which i use in my setup.

@wishmaster270 ok i will try to modify caching to see what happend.
And about the volume yes i know that module but i have a touchscreen and can be better if i have a buttons for volume in same module from where i start listening.

wishmaster270

@electros I will check if I can include two control buttons to increase/decrease the volume by sending notifications to MMM-Volume.

@wishmaster270 Thank you, and about the caching nothing change with that. here is one of the link http://www.surfmusik.de/m3u/magicfm,14949.m3u can you try please maybe i doing something wrong

wishmaster270

I tried this link on the command line:
mplayer -cache 256 -playlist http://www.surfmusik.de/m3u/magicfm,14949.m3u

Mplayer complains that the station is to slow. It doesn’t even start playing in my case.
It looks like mplayer has some known problems with aac.

But you are right. If i use xmms2 it works.
The problem is, that xmms2 uses a totally different interface.

But also some good news. I released a new version 0.0.2 which adds two volume buttons.

Found a hack:
You can create an own m3u file which contains this url “http://stream.laut.fm/magicfm”. This one is working fine with mplayer

                                       {
						title: "Test",
						url: "/home/pi/test.m3u",
					}

electros
