SHOUTcast Radio

ok, i have a problem with this extension. the genre list is missing an “ALL” option. so this cause to automatically some stations are are not sorted under that categories be “missing”. and example is www.RadioPirata.com, on shoutcast’s website is found by searching “mexico” while on this add-on don’t know where to find it. because under “latin genre” is not listed.

You shouldn’t use white as text color. It doesn’t look good with some feathers.
Have a look here :

When I startup songbird I get a notification saying a script is taking too long and it asks me if I want to stop it or let it continue. It points to this code: chrome://shoutcast-radio/content/favourites.js:52

Since either v0.4.5 or v0.4.6 I have been unable to add streams to Favorite Stations. The Favorite column simply isn’t there, nor is there a right click context menu [in the SHOUTcast list]. These are in the Favorite Stations list, and sadly, I can remove streams from this list. Help please!

The extension is great!
The only thing I’ve noticed is, when you point your cursor in the “genre” field and then click outside of it with your mouse and try to open a (cmd+T) new tab, the pointer will still be on the previous field so a genre will change to the T initial one, instead of just opening the tab.
Sorry for buggy english.
I hope you clearly got what I meant.
Thanks for the add

I use the Shoutcast website all the time to listen to Old Time Radio. When I search for “old time radio”, on their site, I get about 20+ stations. How can I do this within this add-on?

@stevel: sorry, no column picker for me (only in a SHOUTcast tab). Following is my Error Console (cleared console with only Library tab up -> clicked SHOUTcast -> viewed console after SHOUTcast tab loaded):

This extension works great for me. Is there any chance of getting the track information to show so it will work well in combination with other addons such as mashtape?
Nice work!

does this consider all radio on all countries?

@stevel: any useful info in my console log? I have since uninstalled, restarted, and installed to bring the return of the favorites column, but still no column picker.

Love this AddOn!!! Great work! (having the possibility to search in ‘All’ would indeed be icing on the cake… )
But I have another little quibble: I’d like it if clicking the ‘SHOUTcast’ item in the treeview could set focus on any already opened tab with the SHOUTcast search instead of always opening a new tab. Could this be done?
This AddOn has really really really increased the appeal of Songbird for me! Coming from Winamp this was THE feature that I missed! I practically only listen to streams these days and was contemplating the daunting task of maybe having to try and write an addon like this!
And for those querying about the track info not showing, this AddOn is not responsible for that: it’s a known bug with GStreamer occuring under Linux only (maybe OS X also, not sure…).

ZOMG !!!
I just found the ‘Favorite’ feature, I hadn’t seen it!!!
This solves my other problem with Songbird: bookmarking streams!
YAY!

How's that custom field for different genres coming along? Or "all" category?

@stevel
you tease concerts extension ! I want it :p

You rock, dude! Custom fields allow my old time radio to show up! Thanks!!!

Unable to write in the space for the comma-delimited list of genres. the box is only a thin line.

In WinAmp you can select All Genres - can you make it work like they do?

Thanks,

Great add-on!!

Btw, anyone know of a similar addon but for ICEcast?

What I would really like is a way to Export/Import my Favourite SHOUTcast streams.

I mostly listen to underground music and it takes some hunting around to find good streams - when I find them I don't want to lose them!

Then I could easily use Songbird on different computers (e.g. work + home). It would also make things easier when your computer/Songbird installation breaks.

Also what about the option to add a custom Label (name) to a stream? Sometimes they use stupidly long names, or put too much self-promotion / advertising.

Cheers,
