Is there any way a vista pc can see and use the server sending device.(forgot the name but it lets you sent music to pi over bband) That i use in my win8 pc. It would be great if i could. It doesnt appear anywhere on the panel on left under moode.

For example: z: mapped to \\moode\NAS (or \\moode\USB, \\moode\SDCARD)
Then the z: drive will show up in Windows File Explorer

I found a great site providing details of all/most UK Radio stations that provide streams over the Internet:
http://www.listenlive.eu/uk.html
In that list is the BBC Radio 3 HD (320k) service link - which expands to this:
[playlist]
NumberOfEntries=2
File1=http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_p?s=1446103278&e=1446117678&h= 86402c5541e56f44fbfccca69255992c
Title1=No Title
Length1=-1
File2=http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_q?s=1446103278&e=1446117678&h= 82b4d6fed1a10cfebea7dd75f5450ab7
Title2=No Title
Length2=-1
I tried adding the first to Moode and up it came - and Audio Info confirms that it is indeed the 320k stream
BTW it took me a while to find the Create Radio Station link (under the menu option link for every radio station) - I'd just comment that it didn't seem the most intuitive place to put it, hence my difficulty finding it. However, I have to say it worked a treat - I've added quite a few UK stations from that list.
One question, Tim - if I've added Radio stations, what happens when I next upgrade Moode - I know you're always adding stations on each release. Will my customised list be overwritten?
Cheers
Rob
OK so it's not that simple - I was playing that Radio 3HD stream all morning, changed to a different station, went back to the Radio 3 HD stream and it was no longer working. When I checked inside the .pls file, the URLs had changed - using the latest ones brought it back. It appears that the BBC keep changing them which is a pain
Not sure if Moode could be modified to extract the latest URL from a .pls file (the .pls link remains the same)?

Here is a test that you can try that uses the MPD "load" command instead of "add" which is what Moode uses for radio stations.
(1) ssh root@moode (pwd = moode)
(2) telnet localhost 6600 (this is connection to MPD)
(3) load "/var/lib/mpd/music/WEBRADIO/NAME_OF_BBC3_PLS_FILE.pls"
(4) In Moode UI go to last item in Playlist which should be the loaded pls file and start play back
(5) At some point switch to another station, then try BBC3 again and see if it plays
If you have added radio stations then connect to the "RADIO" cifs/smb share that Moode posts and copy off the pls files. Then copy them back after new image. Remember to open Browse panel, click on menu for WEBRADIO and select "Update this folder"
