PS3-Radio: How to add thousands of radio station to PS3MS

[ColonizedMind]

[quote="devildog93"]I've had it with this plugin/add-on I have had it working before.....but it screwed PMS up after a while so I removed it.
Now, trying again recently, I am continually stuck at 87%.


Same for me. I did all the steps required (remove unresponsive url's, delete World-Radio.dat, etc.) and I'm still stuck at 87%. The error code is: Runtime error 62 Input past end of file. What does that mean?

Should I try to uninstall everything (PS3MS and PS3-Radio) and reinstall? Please help! I am really enjoying this app...

Cool. Thanks for the heads-up. This will, however, be my last kick at the cat on this add-on. I love the concept, and when it used to work, thoroughly enjoyed using it. Lately though it has made me want to pull my hair out.....trying to make it work, waiting 3-4 hours to do it's thing, and then having it hang up
But, I will try once more. Thanks.

Hi I'm getting a heap of "Data type not supported" messages for lots of channels, I've had a quick read through the thread but there doesn't seem to be a solution put forward.

For instance in the favourites folder 80s will work but 90s will not:

Code: Select all

audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The 80s channel,http://scfire-ntc-aa08.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1040,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/80s.png
audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The 90s Channel,http://64.237.49.76:8025,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/90s.png


I have no idea what the difference is, maybe its the address being in numbers instead of words? Most of the favourites don't work, but The Hitz Radio and Death FM does. Strangely so does Toronto - Q107 which has a numbered address:

Code: Select all

audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The Hitz Radio,http://scfire-ntc-aa08.stream.aol.com:80/stream/1074,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/hitz.png
audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=Death.FM,http://hd.death.fm:80,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/Death.FM.png
audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=Toronto - Q107 CILQ Classic Rock,http://208.80.52.108:80/CILQFM,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/Toronto.png


here are more favourites that will not work:

Code: Select all

audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The Alternative Channel,http://64.237.49.76:8015,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/alternative.png
audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The Classic Rock Channel,http://64.237.49.76:8020,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/classicrock.png
audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The Comedy Channel,http://64.237.49.76:8030,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/977comedy.png
audiostream.World-Radio,*** My Favorites ***=.977 The Country Channel,http://64.237.49.76:8000,file:///C:/Program Files/PS3 Media Server/PS3-Radio-Icons/country.png


I'm running xp, beta 412, ps3slim and a samesung 42in.

So, this latest PS3-Radio release gets past the annoying problem of being stuck at 87%.

Now it's the annoying problem of over half the channels I try come up as unsupported.

Like I said before, I used to think highly of this add-on, but now it is just aggravating, nevermind that it takes PMS 3-4 times longer to load, and having it added in creates more "fatal memory errors", leading to having to screw around with java heap settings.

The concept......................
The practicality..................

If there was a PRACTICAL, and EASY way to seperate the working streams from the NON-working streams then this add-on MIGHT be useful.

Another problem, some lists clearly don't fully populate.....
For instance......I went into country listings, into "US/California" The list comes in alphabetically, and just ends at the "H" level. So it's telling me there are no radio stations is California that begin with any letters after "H".
Come on. Gimme a break.

This has to be the most annoying, aggravating add-on/plug-in I have tried for PMS and it is now being removed for the LAST time, never to be seen again, at least nowhere in my network.

I've also given up on the ps3-radio tool. One (hopefully simple) question: How can I add a couple "favorites" to my list without using favorites.csv and the ps3-radio.exe?

Thanks a million-- Just getting into using PS3 Media Server again after giving up in frustration from ps3-radio.exe...

Using the latet build 10.09.30 and PS3 media server 1.20.412 under Win7, I get no station within categories. I see the categories OK and no available stations to select.

I did all the steps from scratch with success before sending this post.

Anyone with luck with the software version combination I mention?

Why is there a 1:45:32s limit on the radio streams? Is there a way to remove the limit so that PS3-Radio does not switch to the next station in the folder list when it's reached the time limit? I've searched everywhere for a solution and I keep coming up blank.

Please advise!
