Play UDP stream

nielsek · November 8, 2014, 9:54am

Hi.

Is playing UDP stream radio supported? Currently it doesn’t work for me.
Playlist file looks like:
[playlist]
NumberOfEntries=1
File1=udp://@XXX.X.XX.XXX:1234
Title1=Radio Title
Version=2

Codec used is MPEG Audio layer 1/2/3 (mpga).

I have lot of these through my ISP, so it would be great to get it working. Enabled verbose output in mpd.conf, but didn’t get anything useful from mpd.log.
Any hints?

Happy Volumio2 usere here. Thanks for all the work!
I’m still trying to get these webradio stations working. The UDP stream is sent from an IP (basically IPTV service provider). I can receive it successfully and play with VLC. VLC reports the codec to be “MPEG Audio layer 1/2 (mpga)” 48000Hz and 256kb/s.
The UDP aadress is udp://@239.3.12.101:1234, but it’s not receivable outside of this ISP. When I try to add it with mpc, I get an error

error adding udp://@239.3.12.101:1234: No such song

I can also use udpxy (UDP-to-HTTP multicast traffic relay daemon), so that the address is 192.168.16.1:4022/udp/239.3.12.101:1234
This I can already add though mpc mpc add http://192.168.16.1:4022/udp/239.3.12.101:1234
MPD log as follows:

I also post here log, when playing webradio from volumio2 web interface.
The first one is using directly the UDP address and second one is thought udpxy (HTTP address).
