      @wishmaster270 Now if I put this in the config file:

      {
      			module: "MMM-MplayerRadio",
      			header: "Radio",
      			position: "top_center",
      			config: {
      				customCommand: "",
      				customCommandArgs: ["", "", ""],
      				stations: [
      					{
      						title: "KissFM",
      						url: "",
      						logo: "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ro/8/86/Logo_Kiss_FM.png",
      						customCommand: "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MplayerRadio/scripts/KissFM.sh",
      						customCommandArgs: ["", "", ""],
      					},
      				],
      			},
      		},
      

      and this in KissFM.sh

      #!/bin/bash
      
          xmms2 stop
      
         xmms2 clear
        
       
      xmms2 add https://live.kissfm.ro/kissfm.aacp
      
        xmms2 play 
      

      it’s working when i want to start radio but nothing happens when i touch the stop button just a short flickering of your module(I use a 10" touchescreen).
      Thank you.

        Hi,

        as i wrote in the documentation you need to make sure that your script runs as long as the station is active and needs to stop the playback if it gets a kill signal.
        Maybe i will find a short tutorial about catching the kill signal.

          If you change your script to (playRadio.bash):

          #!/bin/bash
          URL=$1
          RUN=1
          exit_script() {
                  echo "Stopping playback"
                  xmms2 stop
                  xmms2 clear
                  RUN=0
          }
          
          trap exit_script SIGINT SIGTERM
          
          xmms2 stop
          xmms2 clear
          xmms2 add $URL
          xmms2 play
          
          while [ $RUN -gt 0 ]; do
                  echo "Still running"
                  sleep 1
          done
          

          and the config to

          		{
          			module: "MMM-MplayerRadio",
          			header: "Radio",
          			position: "top_center",
          			config: {
          				stations: [
          					{
          						title: "KissFM",
          						url: "https://live.kissfm.ro/kissfm.aacp",
          						logo: "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ro/8/86/Logo_Kiss_FM.png",
          						customCommand: "/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-MplayerRadio/scripts/playRadio.bash",
          						customCommandArgs: ["###URL###"],
          					},
          				],
          			},
          		},
          

          You can then reuse the same script for different stations only by adding the url as first parameter in the config

          Edit: Added url back to the config

              @electros Perfect.
              I think I will check in the script into the repository so you can easy update to upcoming versions

                  @wishmaster270 Hi, I’m newbie and know almost nothing about coding. I have installed your module successfully, but what should I do to start it (without touchscreen)? It is shown on my mirror but not played. I put only one Station.
                  I want to start it automatically if I start my mirror.
                  Thanks.

                    @bryan_1 Hi, currently there is no autoplay feature implemented. But I will check it the next days. Maybe it is not a big deal

                      Hi,

                      just published an new version (0.0.3) which provides an autoplay feature. Simply add the station index you want to play to the config option “autoplay”. If you only configured one station it is 0. The station will start to play after about 1 second after the mirror started.

                        hi @wishmaster270 ,

                        if you want me to create a vocal control with MMM-GoogleAssistant, just tell me.
                        I can create a special sub-code for your module

                        can do:

                        • volume control (no api found)
                        • change stations (next/previous/play/toogle,etc) from your api
