01/15 Update: TuneIn/internet Radio Information

[chalkyblue69]

Yes Absolute was working on vTuner before Bose went mad & implemented TuneIn 😞

I'm in Germany & I have Absolute working on a 50euro Internet Radio in the next room, no problem, no VPN or SmartDNS, nothing...!
My expensive Bose Soundtouch, unable to listen to Absolute, have tried several 3rd party URL streams so far 😞

This one works for me here in Belgium. http://tx.planetradio.co.uk/icecast.php?i=absoluteradio.mp3

Now, I'm not that tech savvy but I was able to get all my streaming links through the vTuner website. I'll search the radio station I want, click on it. Then right click and select Page Source. Press Ctrl F to activate the search bar and type in stream and copy the url. Most streaming links seem to contain the word ice or icecast.

Have you tried the AAC stream from this site : http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/aac.asp

There are bitrates limitations in the new Radio Stream URL feature, but 128kbps AAC+ is above any audiophile's perception in ABX testing. 😉

After 2 month, I still can’t get my radio channel back.

Custome stream is useless

Thanks I'll give it a try later....!

Hello All,

We want to thank everyone for the continued posts and to those helping others with the custom URL links.

There is some information we'd love to share with you.

• There are absolutely no plans to ever remove the Custom URL feature from the SoundTouch application. We appreciate all the positive feedback everyone has provided to us about this feature and we're very happy to see its helping you all be able to enjoy your favorite stations.

• Custom URL streaming feature is completely independent from our partnership with TuneIN.

• We are not sharing any data from the Custom URL feature with TuneIn.

• We're still actively working with TuneIn to help improve their station coverage and we're please to see community members are letting us know that their favorite stations are working again in TuneIn.

Warm Regards,

@Jan Petrtyl

your suggestion works (for other CRo stations), but I am unable to find streams for CRo Plus. I have found these lists:

http://radio.cesnet.cz:8000/

http://www.listenlive.eu/czech-republic.html

CRo Plus worked for a day or two (in case of cesnet), and then stopped working completely. All Plus streams, all options. No way. Radiozurnal works fine. Bose starts to drive me crazy. CRo Plus is one of the reasons I bought that damned Sound Touch 10. Moreover, when I wanted to listen to Plus via bluetooth and CRo Android app, the ST 10 is unable to locate my phone. Hence the speaker needs to be unplugged and then plugged-in. Only then is able to re-connect to my phone. All of this is so frustrating... I used to be Bose´s ambassador, but this is so disappointing 😞

Thanks a lot for any clues!

Joel...Thanks, the Custom URL has worked for me, but now we need a way to save these stations, similar to the Tunein Favorites.  If you have multiple Custom URL stations, you can easily run out of preset slots and run out of recently played slots...Grant
