Hi TWG

any chance you could share the file with me?
Thanks in advance,
Ben 

I'd be very grateful for a copy as well - if at all possible

Thanks in advance,
Ben 

@lob4475: Done.

Thanks
Sadly it did not resolve the issue.
I still cant access all stations  (notably none of Denmarks Radios stations are working). Some stations are working though. I wonders if DR has changed to a higher bitrate or something.

I've tried reaching out to TunIn to see, if they've changed anything:
Any input is very welcome

TuneIN works on MK1, but only the HTTP channels but NOT the ones using HTTPS (most commercial radio stations use this I am afraid....)

 

I have a potential fix for this anyone needs it.  The cost is whatever you would pay for a Raspbery Pi.
(I'm using a $10 Raspberry Pi Zero W, but it's only powerful enough for a single station.)

My favorite local jazz station stopped working on all my B&O gear about 18 months ago when the station moved their offices and upgraded their streamers.  After going 'round and 'round with the station and B&O I realized they would never fix it.

I solved the problem with a Raspberry Pi and a streaming platform called icecast2.  I use vlc on the Raspberry Pi to bring in the stream from the source and transcode it into something the B&O gear will accept.  the transcoded stream gets sent to the icecast server (running on the same Raspberry Pi) where it is available for my B&O gear to stream.  I've added a "Custom URL" to Tunein using their app that points toward the Pi instead of the original station's streaming URL.  The B&O devices are happy to play the transcoded (and http rather than https) streams and everything works as original.

I've been hit by this problem as well. I mostly use my essence mk1 in the kitchen and suddenly in august sometime i couldn't play my favourite stations (Denmarks Radios stations). I don't know for sure that its related to https and can't figure out exactly how to verify, but one way could be to just try your solution. I do have a qnap nas running at most hours, so i suppose i could install icecast on that? Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

Best regards,
Ben

You could probably install icecast on your QNAP server, but I'm not 100% sure since I didn't do that.  Are you able to run VLC on your QNAP server?  I got the RPi icecast setup information from https://kalifi.org/2020/03/internet-radio-with-raspberry-pi-and-icecast.html.  For audio transcoding I used the command line version of VLC, cvlc.  Then I added a custom URL to tunein pointing at teh icecast server, and it all worked!

I'm taking a stab at the dr.dk stations.  I was able to get a stream of DR P2 Klassik to work through Windows VLC but not command line VLC due to a TLS certificate error.  I'll keep working on it and let you know when I figure out a solution.

I've already installed icecast on my qnap (its a one-click operation), but not sure where to go from here.

Im trying to read up on the icecast documentation, but i think there are some basics, that i haven't grasped. Icecast is the software that can stream - so in the end, it'l produce a URL that i can feed into TuneIn and create my own version of my favorite radio channels. But what goes into icecast? I can't just use it as a sort of relay station for an existing stream?
Kind of like whats described here: https://icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.4.1/config-file.html#relay

As for VLC it should be possible to install, but it'll be a command line job. 

Sorry if i seem a bit confused.

Cheers,
Ben
