Support of m3u-playlists (use and create) would be fine.

Proper support of Internet radio services would be nice too (don’t care about AAC+).

Support of m3u-playlists

Yes, that always struck me as a very curious omission – pretty much every other player in the entire world will at least read it.

You drop m3u & pls lists onto an existing Digital playlist to import their content (assuming they have the proper file types aa7 & aa8).

But that means that, in order to listen to an m3u or pls playlist, you have to create a Digital playlist first. I’m sure it works, but why does the user have to work indirectly?

Yeah, I was expecting to drop an m3u file into the icon bar or main window and have it “just work” without faffing with more playlists – I already have a playlist, I don’t want another.

Not always. As an example: Linn Radio (because of unknown reasons only jazz and classical channels are played correctly, the main one often doesn’t).

Offtopic:
I use this tool to create M3U-lists with RISC OS (has a small bug in !Boot). A “clean” Version if anyone need.

Maybe “Netradio” do a better job.

It does, in delivering more stream drops and eating 10 times more CPU (and more RAM too). C’est la vie ;-)

I tried the main one several times but never had any problem with it. Today I even reduced the buffers as low as 8KB for input and 128KB for output, it is just stable for me.
