The default selection is very nice but being able to manually add a stream would be great. Can this be done through the command line at the moment?
Thanks,
Kyle

Log in Raspberry
ssh pi@IP_from_Raspy
Password: raspberry
cd /var/lib/mpd/music/WEBRADIO
add stream (example):
sudo nano Hand_of_Doom_Radio.pls
Add these lines
[playlist]
numberofentries=1
File1=http://50.117.8.242:9585/Live
Title1=Hand_of_Doom_Radio
maybe restart mpd over web ui
There is a way which does not require command line usage.

May I suggest an approach similiar to Tune In of vTuner?
You create an account on those services, create your favourite stations list via those web sites and, using the same credentials, the device then retrieves the station.
vTuner states explicitly that they offer API for embedded systems, TuneIn does not but it is used in various products, so I’m sure they have API too.
Just do it yourself: It is super easy! You already gave the link to the pls-file, just follow the instructions I linked above
( adding-a-webradio-fixed-t161.html )
It require not more than half a minute.
You can access the filesystem of the Volumio device by navigating to \[ip address of Volumio device] from My Computer window in Windows. Drop the “.pls” or “.m3u” files in the WebRadio folder.
I would highly appreciate if radio stations could be added through ui without need for shared folders or ssh’ing.
You can using sound@home App for Android…you can also organize them creating folders
Sorry to necro this thread but I cannot find the radio stations I added.
I went
cd /var/lib/mpd/music/WEBRADIO
But that folder is empty even tho I added 5 stations through the web up.
The stations exist somewhere in volumio because they play fine.
How do I find them to save the list?
Try the file:
/data/favourites/my-web-radio
