Some internet stations won't play

(1/3) > >>

RichardKimber:
I'm evaluating the linux version (ver 25.0.108) on Ubuntu 19.04, and before buying the license I'd like to be sure I can play my favourite stations.

Several stations I've tried (Radio Fip, Radio Paradise, Radio Tunes, Swiss Classic Radio) all work fine, but one of my favourite stations - Venice Classic Radio - won't play and gives a "something went wrong with playback" message. I'd be grateful for any pointers on what might be wrong (I've tried various URLs including those given in the help section of their website). Has anyone got this station working?

Also, is there a way of disabling the keyring which pops up each time I try to navigate to different sites?

bob:
What's the URL for that station?

For the keyring, I assume it's coming from the chromium browser, it seems like you should just be able to accept it's request and have it remember that.

RichardKimber:
I've tried

http://109.123.116.202:8020/stream - which works with VLC
and also
http://www.veniceclassicradio.eu/live1/128.m3u
which their website suggests

my problem is I'm a novice in these matters

The http://www.veniceclassicradio.eu/live1/128.m3u URL works for me.
Go to File->Open URL
Put in the URL and click the show web menu option...
Make sure play stream is checked and add to web media if you want to save it.

RichardKimber:
I did that, but it still doesn't work, even after upgrading to the latest MC25.

Also, for the stations that do work, choosing DSD output doesn't have any effect; my DAC says it's PCM.

I have HQPlayer outputting DSD ok to my T+A DAC 8 DSD, so it's not presumably a hardware issue (unfortunately HQPlayer will only play radio stations that stream flac). Also JRiver correctly detects my DAC in the usbstream section of the devices.
