thank you!... nice work, i'll be trying this as soon as i get my phone back (usb port finally gave out)... now, if you could only add last.fm scrobbling or compatibility with the existing scrobblers, it'd be genious!... =)

Wow,you did it!
I kinda like your desktop widget aswell. Maybe this could turn into a widget too,like cutetube-qml.
Anyways,very nice my man :)

Great job mate! Nice, practical and simple interface...

But not able to have any lyrics here, it could be an italian artist or a very known brit everytime keep saying ''no lryic found''...:confused:

And if it'll be able to search for a station by name or country it'll be great.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
it is possible to add some large amount of radio stations at once? and maybe separate then by genre or country or state... i would like something like nokia gives oficially in symbian devices, but i dont know how can we get his database =/

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player

Great program. I'm trying to get Today fm working. So far I've copy and pasted the url from the website live stream but it doesn't work. Could someone help by posting the correct url or tell me what I'mdoing wrong. Thanks.

I found a mp3-link on the site which led to this adress
http://streaming.todayfm.com:8000/

I hope this was the site you were referring to?

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
great gui..but i have not been able to add any urls successfuly. Any that i do add simply partially overwrite one of the default stations.
Is there support for .asx feeds?

gionni88 2011-06-18 16:30

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
@datjomp: a desktop widget has to be kept light, since it stays in memory when it's loaded. But when I'm able to use dbus implementation I can just do a widget like the multimedia one, or somewidget, just to control the app (which will be able to be put in hide).

@bingbings: lyrics are retrieved from http://www.chartlyrics.com/, if that site does not have it, than it won't load. I was thinking to add a button to open another lyric site with a QWebView shown in case.

@amadeukaos: http://delicast.com/radio has a huge collection of radio urls. I may add them as default list. Separating by country and genere is already something I'm already looking to implement.

If you wanna suggest a radio station to add in the default list, type it here. To check if the url is correct, just try to open it from pc or mplayer.

Yes it can.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
I did an update to the new player today and removed one station from my list of stations. That led to that all of those Iīve added recently was lost. Donīt know why really.
Are the stations saved in a file somewhere?
I liked the thing you did in your widget with a file that contained all the stations. Which will remain intact although an update has been made.

Keep up the good work :)

gionni88 2011-06-19 13:40

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
I have switched from using a file with a list to an sqlite3 db. It is saved in /home/user/.config/internetradioplayer and will remain intact if case of an update (but I will delete it in case I have to massively change its structure).

New saving format allows the filtering of stations by genre or country. Long tap on list widget to get those choices.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
btw the app doesn't respond to a2rcp commands. would be nice to include this. keep up the good work!

amadeukaos 2011-06-20 12:13

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
maybe is a nice thing put in the playlist as many stations as you can as a default list, :D

droll 2011-06-20 13:25

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
it would be more manageable to create some sort of categorization in the playlist rather than having everything in one ginormous list.

Does your bluetooth headset keep playing this app? Mine mutes it after 1-2mins.

Just post the stations you wanna get inside the default list. In this way when you update the app you will have your stations already in the default list.

Have you tried the filtering? You may filter the stations by country or genre.

They won't work till they're connected within the app. Will do that in next (the next after the coming one) version.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
Hey gionni88 thanks again... I downloaded this app yesterday so I could test it while in my car. My N900 is hooked up to my car so I can use it as a satnav, media player and mail/text/skype coming in and out while on the move... So the radio interested me a lot. What I found on testing this after installing a couple of bbc radio stations..sound is fine but from time to time on 3g you get signal loss and with no buffering this ment losing what had been said at the point of signal loss... in the begining this wasnt too bad but when you get to a part you want to hear and the signal drops. you know when it comes back or if you press play to continue you havee lost the bit you most wanted.. and this haappened to me several times today which prompted me to switch back to the stock I/R. also the pressing play to ressume.. can this not be implemented so the software keeps looking for a signal to ressume rather than time out after 10 secs of signal loss?

Cut and paste of URL is ok... but cant shoutcast or such open there URL direct for save feature?

Just some food for thought.. but very good player... Ill be looking for updates in the future as I think this is well worth having app.

Loz.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
@Loz: try new version (0.0.6), I may have improved it.

I tested it and while hearing radio I disconnected and reconnected wlan connection. Did not hear any stutter, so buffering works well. If it goes out of buffer, it will resume the radio when you get internet connecting again.

Pressing Play does not resume, it stops the radio and restart the streaming.

Only copy & paste to import stations, or type here so I can add them into default list.

I had implemented bluetooth headset controls aswell for next, prev and toggle buttons.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
@gionni88 thanks for your work thus far!

grateful if you could add the BBC national stations:

BBC Radio1, 2, 3, 4LW, 4FM, 4xtra, 5, 5sports extra, 6

Also BBC Radio Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and World Service

Thanks

Loz 2011-06-22 00:36

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
i was gonna say the same!

freebeerz 2011-06-22 19:59

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
Thanks for the app, and another vote for the BBC radio stations please!

Also you can edit the sqlite file directly from the command line when the player isn't running but it seems the app still doesn't take the changes immediately. Is there some caching going on?

gionni88 2011-06-22 20:43

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
Will include BBC radios in next version.

There is a sort of caching, to take the changes refilter the list or pick "DoNotFilter" to reload from db.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
Oh and a live pause function would be great, even only for a short period, so i can sync it with tv pictures like tennis or motor racing where the radio commentators are much better than the tv ones. :p

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
whats the change log from ver 006 to 007?

gionni88 2011-07-15 16:19

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
Version 1.0.2 will be on devel soon.

Changelog:
Quote:

* Added ability to get favourite stations. Press ctrl+a to add the highlighted station into favourite list, or ctrl+d to delete it from list.
* Added option to hide player instead of closing, it's enabled by default
* Added support to dbus, only one method by now to get window visible when hidden
* Lists can be sorted by name, genre and country, aside being able to be filtered aswell.
Since favourite feature needs an edit on stations sqlite db, restoring default db is needed after upgrading.
There is a small button on lyrics window to create a web page on lyrics.com with the artist and title in the line edits.

DB has 99stations right now and app has 1translation (italian).
To request a station to be included, type here name, url, genre and country.
To request a translation, type here the language so I can provide the ts file to use with QtLinguist.

Re: [ANNOUNCE] Internet Radio Player
 
i've got a lot of stations on my stock player is it going to be a case of cutting and pasting each one or is there an easier way?
