So the BBC R3 HD link is this:

http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediasele...adio_three.pls

Its contents vary over time, but right now it's this:

[playlist]
NumberOfEntries=2
File1=http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_p?s=1446130544&e=1446144944&h= d4793dce4c907846f6d4a6e7f1371b31
Title1=No Title
Length1=-1
File2=http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_q?s=1446130544&e=1446144944&h= de591be243a25e9c204aaae5a205146b
Title2=No Title
Length2=-1

If I'm typing load "/var/lib/mpd/music/WEBRADIO/BBC Radio 3 HD.pls" that assumes that a file exists in that path - I see the files that are in there already as a result of using the Create Radio Station. Do I first create a new Radio Station using the UI, and if so do I use the .pls URL or one of the ones it contains? Or is there a different step I've missed?

I'm confused :-)

Hi Rob,

My bad. Here is what to do:

(1) Make a new pls file called "Rob.pls" containing

[playlist]
NumberOfEntries=2
File1=http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_p?s=1446130544&e=1446144944&h= d4793dce4c907846f6d4a6e7f1371b31
Title1=No Title
Length1=-1
File2=http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_lc1_radio3_q?s=1446130544&e=1446144944&h= de591be243a25e9c204aaae5a205146b
Title2=No Title
Length2=-1

(2) copy it to /var/www/mpd/music/WEBRADIO

(3) load /var/www/mpd/music/WEBRADIO/Rob.pls

That should work :-)
