Play internet radio

Post by bogdyro » 30 Nov 2017 20:37

Hi everyone.
I would like to wake up every morning with an online radio using only Automagic and not another app (for instance TuneIn radio)
The URL is http://live.guerrillaradio.ro:8010/guerrilla.aac
How can I do this with automagic ?
Sending an intent to chrome opens the page but doesn't start the playback.
Using HTTP request doesn't work.
There is an app called Intent Radio that takes a broadcast sent by automagic with the URL but playback doesn't start(stuck at buffering)
Any solutions ?
Thx

Hi,

You can try to use action Sound. Change the Sound type to File and paste the URL. On my device it takes about 20 to 30 seconds until the sound starts. Maybe it's buffering that long before it can play.
I also highly recommend to enable option Show status bar icon to stop sound in the action so you have an easy way to stop the sound.

Regards,
Martin

thanks Martin. The action works like U said in about 20 seconds.
But clicking on stop action sound makes automagic hang, don't know why.
Opening the link in chrome shows a player. clicking the play button starts playback immediately.
don't know what's happening.

Has worked for me without problems.
