Dear all,
When trying to use some webradios, or some podcasts, I often have a problem similiar to the one shown here: https://github.com/ChrisPanda/volumio-podcast-plugin/issues/9. This for instance happens with the France Musique web radio http://direct.francemusique.fr/live/francemusique-midfi.mp3.
I noticed, when running curl directly from the command line, for instance
volumio@ella:~$ curl -v -L -o curl.mp3 http://direct.francemusique.fr/live/francemusique-midfi.mp3
that it takes about 15s for the actual download to start (after two redirections, see the output at the end of this message).
It seems that, as used by volumio, curl timeout is set to 10s. Hence the errors.
So my question is: where can curl options be set? For instance, I could add
--connect-timeout 20
In volumio? In the volumio plugins? In mpd?
I tried to add a .curlrc file with the relevant option in
/home/volumio/.
,
/root/.
, and
/var/lib/mpd/.
but it didn’t help.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for your help.

PS: the output of curl:
