Hi

where do you store the radios list on the server, there many of them that are not working, do you parse them from somewhere i search for all the pls i have and nothing that helps.

can you help me where to find the pls for the handpicked and radio streams that we configured in the web interface ?

thx

Many of those stations are SHOUTcast stations and they tend to be unreliable. We periodically check them and remove the bad one, but it's impossible to ensure that all work. Unfortunately you can't edit that station list, but you can create your own, if you're running TwonkyServer on PC.

If you want to add your own radio station manually you need to create a wpl playlist file (WMP can do this for you) and place the correct URL pointing to the radio station in the file (instead of a local file name).
