Problems with adding radio station

[Dr. Riina]

Hello, anyone can help with a little problem?

I've been trying to add a radio station to the game, but after couple of hours it still doesn't work.

Link to the radio station is here -> https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/live (in google chrome it works perfectly fine)

I've tried to modify the link in different ways, but none of them works.
Links that I've tried:
stream_data[10]: "https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/autodj|VOMBA FM|Dance|EST|128|1"
stream_data[11]: "https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/live|VOMBA FM2|Dance|EST|128|1"
stream_data[12]: "https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/stream|VOMBA FM3|Dance|EST|128|1"
stream_data[13]: "https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/autodj.mp3|VOMBA F4|Dance|EST|128|1"
stream_data[14]: "https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/live.mp3|VOMBA FM5|Dance|EST|128|1"
stream_data[15]: "https://c4.radioboss.fm:18123/stream.mp3|VOMBAbFM6|Dance|EST|128|1"

Anyone know what should i change to get this radio working in-game?

Thanks.

Just play it in your browser, if it works OK. The radio is not very up to date, it cannot play many streamed Internet radio stations because of format incompatibility, many stations which worked previously have changed their format and will no longer work in ETS2. There are a number of threads here about that.

It is also picky about ID3 tags on MP3 files and will error or not play tracks that are otherwise fine in VLC player etc. which means using VLC instead of the built in player. Not a problem though, you get more control and can crank the volume up!

If they are not MP3 streams they will not work.

Too bad that ets2 cannot fix that.
Anyways, thanks!

Change the https to http and remove the 1 from the port number so your stream entry reads.

"http://c4.radioboss.fm:8123/autodj|VOMBA FM|Dance|EST|128|1"

The games player can not parse HTTPS.

Awesome station btw thanks 💃

Radioboss is an application by the look of it but I'm not that tekky so prolly dont know what I'm talking about. LOL
All the links you have listed bring up "404 file not found" error so from that I suggest the links are incorrect.
What is the actual radio station you are trying to get?
eg:- I listen to Greatest Hits Radio and this is the address of local broadcast - stream_data[16]: "http://tx.planetradio.co.uk/icecast.php?i=net2westnorfolk.mp3|Greatest Hits (East)(West Norfolk)|National|EN|0|1"
This is one of the stations I listen to,

Edit:


Just tried to create a link for you:
"https://xn--vmbafm-pxa.fi/kuula-laivis-eraldi-aknas|Vambofm|Dance|Fin|0|0"
Some probs with though:-

!. Cant identify what type of stream (128, AAC etc)

2. Link works from Live-stream but not in game

3. Page opens but is blank apart from a bit at top with radio player but its in paused mode. Press play button and it runs.

Plus there are quite a few regional variations so not sure which one you are after.
Maybe someone who has a bit of time and more knowledge than me (coming late in life to this sort of thing some tech stuff is a steep learning curve)
