Hi all,
Spent quite a bit of time searching for this with no success.
Is there a way to get Moode to display cover art for Radio stations like Radio Paradise. Right now I just get logo.
I am just using my laptop in fullscreen browser with cover art mode to control Moode, would like to show cover of what is currently playing.
Thanks!
Eric

The radio station feature in moOde doesn't support track covers but I think there is some code in the upmpdcli repo that fetches covers from RP. Maybe a dev can investigate and see if it can be integrated?

Just because I wasn't feeling sleepy, scratching the net I came across this:
https://api.radioparadise.com/api/now_playing?chan=2
where chan=<station id>, and the station IDs are the following:
0 = main mix
1 = mellow mix
2 = rock mix
3 = global mix
this api call returns this object:
Code: {
"time":202,
"artist":"R.E.M.",
"title":"What's The Frequency, Kenneth",
"album":"Monster",
"year":"1994",
"cover":"https:\/\/img.radioparadise.com\/covers\/l\/B000002MU3.jpg",
"cover_med":"https:\/\/img.radioparadise.com\/covers\/m\/B000002MU3.jpg",
"cover_small":"https:\/\/img.radioparadise.com\/covers\/s\/B000002MU3.jpg"
}
The links of the various albumarts return JPGs at:
l = 300x300 or 500x500
m = 160x160
s = 70x70
ETA
time seems to be counting down to 0, rather than incrementing.
a more complex result can be retrieved with:
https://api.radioparadise.com/api/get_bl...&info=true
and returns something like the following:

The first "song" is the currently playing, then follow further 3 in the queue.
Only thing, we have to hardcode the channels (or write them in the station data) unless there is an api that returns such channel based on the station name, which I haven't found yet.

Does their API have a license?

I do not think so, but nevertheless, I will look also into the source code I found, to see if there is something about.
ETA
nowhere in the repos I found the code snippets in, is there a license text in the source code, nor as a standalone text file / nitice; not even in the Volumio or JRiver repositories / blogs (both have active plugins for RP).

Hmm,
it looks like RP works the other way around, I do not see, anywhere, any reference to obligations when playing RP, apart from the usual dues when played in public places. Here's my source of information: https://radioparadise.com/about/faqs-and-info.
I subscribed and left a question about agreements in the FAQ, see what comes out.y
P.S.
no matter how long you search for Radio Paradise API, nothing comes out. Nowhere.
as I said, though, at least Volumio, JRiver and Alexa use it.

(I sent you their response)
For the public, the answer is no, the only thing they ask is:
- no ads (do not play ads whan offering PR playback - probably meant if you are a broadcaster)
- no preroll (this I don't know what it means... maybe do not disclose the upcoming tracks to your public? - an API call gives you 4 or 5 "playing next" tracks)
you can read the short conversatoin directly on my RP Faq post https://radioparadise.com/about/faqs-and...d=13199150 and below.

Normally when asking for Licensing information the response would be something more substantial for example a link to the License document that contains the legal terms etc.
A pre-roll in the context of Advertising is when the broadcaster plays an Ad before the user's desired content. There are also post-roll Ads.
This is what radio aggregators like Tunein, iHeart, vTuner etc do. You click a station and before the music starts playing they slip in an Ad for a toilet on sale at your local big box store.
It's not my kind of listening experience and is why moOde does not support radio aggregators.

There is absolutely no mention of license in any form. I do assume that being moOde polite by doing no Ads is enough; or am I missing something?
