Radio Browser - how to use?

Third party integrations

You’ll need to set up a media player on the mini that will show up in HA, like an mpd container.

Thanks.

Let’s say I will use VLC as media player in the mini.
Do I need to add the VLC add-on in HA or is that not required, will HA see the VLC player in the network?

Probably better to install the squeezelite addon.

I have been trying to add this station and nothing I do works. Can someone help me or add it for me? Thanks

If it isn’t already in radio browser you’ll have to add it here. radio-browser.info

Not a home assistant issue.

67

I tried adding it but it wouldnt work.

Ask the people who run radio browser. This is not their sorry channel.

If adding through radio browser page fails, you could try tunein.com route. Make sure you add your radio station to library and refresh Radio tab in MA.

Hi, I have an Onkyo TX-NX616 AV Receiver and wanted to use your code to direct stream streams from Radio Browser. I am a bit confused because I have 2 integrations for this onkyo:

  1. from the “Onkyo” Integrations with following attributes (media_player.tx_nr616):
    Zwischenablage_11-10-2024_01
    Zwischenablage_11-10-2024_011133×1138 88.7 KB
type: custom:mushroom-template-card
primary: Radio GÖD (with Onkyo Integration)
icon: mdi:radio
entity: media_player.tx_nr616
multiline_secondary: true
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: media_player.play_media
  data:
    media_content_id: media-source://radio_browser/4f1fb5fa-8a10-4d72-b247-21d831272373
    media_content_type: audio/mpeg
  target:
    entity_id: media_player.tx_nr616
fill_container: false
secondary: "{{ states('media_player.tx_nr616') }}"
hold_action:
  action: more-info

and 2) from the “DLNA Digial Media Renderer” integration (media_player.onkyo):

Zwischenablage_11-10-2024_02
Zwischenablage_11-10-2024_021170×1003 86 KB

type: custom:mushroom-template-card
primary: Radio GÖD (with DLNA Intergration)
icon: mdi:radio
entity: media_player.onkyo
multiline_secondary: true
tap_action:
  action: call-service
  service: media_player.play_media
  data:
    media_content_id: media-source://radio_browser/4f1fb5fa-8a10-4d72-b247-21d831272373
    media_content_type: audio/mpeg
  target:
    entity_id: media_player.onkyo
fill_container: false
secondary: "{{ states('media_player.onkyo') }}"
hold_action:
  action: more-info

In both cases the onkyo does not stream, any idea why?
Must I switch to a certain input, if yes which? I tried already DLNA, NET, Internet Radio…
