Hi,
Does anyone know how to listen to a station being brodcast by Live365?
I’m trying to get to : Radio KCM - Free Internet Radio - Live365

You can try to open the link in a browser, in chrome press F12, select tab “Network” and press play and look if the list is getting populated with the streaming end point.
Can’t test it as Live365is not available in The Netherlands.

Thanks @Wheaten … It looks like the brower is just doing a GET on the Rest endpoint
Is there a way I can get volumio to read directly from the same uri?

I see the following:
Request URL: https://api.live365.com/station/a88649
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 200 OK

from the preview tab:

  1. stream-hls-url: “https://streaming.live365.com/a88649/playlist.m3u8”
  2. stream-url: “https://streaming.live365.com/a88649”
  3. stream-urls: [{high_quality: “https://streaming.live365.com/a88649”, encoding: “mp3”},…]
  4. timezone: “UTC”
  5. twitter: null
  6. website: “www.radiokcm.com”

I tried substituting the url’s but I’m guessing the server side may be depending on some cookie or other auth info from the HTTP header …
