I can Google for stations I'd like to listen to, but I can't find the correct URL to put into Rhythmbox for them to work.



Do I need to find stations that offer a specific kind of protocol?



i.e. "PLS" (playlist?) Where are some top-notch places to find stations?

Shoutcast


Shoutcast is a massive selection of individual radio stations (over 700 pages). There are so many stations that it is intimidating to even find one.


How to add Radio Stations to Rhythmbox?



  • Vist Shoutcast, find your favorite radio station, right click on it and select Save Link As, Save it in your music library.

  • Right click on .pls file you just downloaded and select Open with Rhythmbox.



  • Alternatively, instead of saving the .pls file just copy the link location, in Rhythmbox select Radios in side bar and click on add, enter the link there and save it.

  • 3rd option is to open the .pls file in Gedit and copy the address from there and add it to Rhythmbox.

Alternative:


Or just install Guayadeque. Listen and browse the complete Shoutcast collection (Over 5,700 stations) and many other radio stations right from your desktop. It's available in Ubuntu Software Center.
