Thats not the only one which doesn't work. When i switched around 15 favorites which come with moode, sometimes stucking. After that you can restart, moode answers restarting but doesn't restart.
It is stucking..

And a lot of radio station didn't work any more for example all BBC Radio stations.

*All* BBC stations? That would be very odd.

However, note that all the 320K versions of BBC radio stations are geo_fenced and will return a 403 error code to MPD if one attempts to play them from an IP address apparently outside the geo-fence.

So, here in the USA, I can play any of the regular BBC stations and none of the 320K BBC stations. A VPN could be used to cross the fence but I don't feel the need.

I'm out for the day, so the stickiness issue will have to wait.

Regards,
Kent

What is the model number of your fritzbox ?

RE: Radio Station switching bug - dad33 - 03-19-2022

Kent is correct.. Im living in Germany and there you need vpn.
Fritzbox 6490 and now 6660.
That isn't the problem, 6490 3 years long with no problems. Since 2021 also problems.
I think it depence on the radio station urls you
play in moode. A lot of standard station work perfect and with switching.

Within the FritzBox 6660 media server there is an 'Internet Radio' option.
Do you have this active for use with other devices that don't have that facility ?

No i never used this function. Why should i do? Moode is a perfect frontend.Which advantage
has this way to play via mediaserver within moode? Is it possible?

Just checking all possible avenues for incompatibility. :-)

Given that this thread has had to date 948 views and other than Kent's rogue (and probably unconnected) station anomaly, with no other users reporting similar experiences then the likelihood of a 'bug' is low and the problem is more probably connected with your hardware/VPN/WiFi.

You may wish to start with a new MoOde instance, an ethernet connection to your FritzBox and no VPN . If all is well there then add any of the former and see where the issue you report arises.

RE: Radio Station switching bug - Tim Curtis - 03-20-2022

There is a station URL checker in moodeutl but a bug is preventing it from working. Below is a command to fix the bug.

Code:
sudo sed -i 's/. SQLDB ./. SQLDB_PATH ./' /usr/local/bin/moodeutl

Then run moodeutl with -u or -U option.

Each station in the cfg_radio table is probed by attempting to connect to its URL and read 1K bytes of data. It takes a few minutes to complete. In the example below the ? means that the probe was unsuccessful. This can happen for the following reasons:

- Station has ceased operation and thus the URL is not valid anymore
- Station is OK but currently is offline or has issues with its streaming service
- Station is OK but the URL is not valid anymore
- Station is OK but the method used by the probe to connect to the URL is rejected by the station
- Station is OK but network or system issues are preventing the probe from working

Code:
pi@moode:~ $ moodeutl -U

RE: Radio Station switching bug - dad33 - 03-20-2022

Thank you very much Tim.. I will check it.

@DRONE7

Good idea with fritzbox radio. I activated the Media browser and added some stations for test. In moode i activated upnp browser... but no fritzmediabrowser is displayed. Does it work with moode?
