Fixed playback issues with some radio stations.

User reviews

Better than Streemur AU

A classic TBH. But please if it isn’t too much trouble… The first country on the list is a hostile nation that belongs at the bottom of the list. Even better would be an option to remove or filter out all hostile nations from the list.

Perfect!

Thank you for this great app and plug-in.🙏

Very Very useful

I like to run the news and field recording streams into a variety of AU effects, and this is the operating ingredient part of that! I’d like to organize, tag, and edit stream specifications more, but it’s mostly fine!

add more sations

please add Golha radio and IRIB radio stations

Cannot remove recognized songs

It’s a great feature to grab the song while it’s playing on the radio so that you can later on search for it, however, there is no way right now of deleting the song once it’s in the list, please address this.
