I've just done a long over due update of the *radio* *stream* database
used by MythMusic.
The database update has been semi-automated so will be updated more
frequently from now on (at least 2 or 3 times a week).
Vital statistics :-
Total Number of Streams: 30419
Number of Broadcaster: 706
Number of streams with logo: 11132
Number of streams without logo: 19287
Number of streams confirmed working (in the UK): 25715
Number of streams confirmed not working (in the UK): 4704
Number of Genres: 117
Number of Countries: 178
Number of Languages: 73
Notes:
* Some streams are geo blocked so only work in specific countries or
play a warning audio track saying the stream isn't available in your
country.
* The raw data comes from http://www.radiosure.com/stations/ so if you
spot any errors please help everyone by updating the upstream data at
Radio? Sure!
* The broadcaster and logo data is specific to the MythTV stream
database. If you see any errors or have and updates to either the
broadcaster or logo data then please email me and I will make sure it
gets updated.
* Your local copy of the stream database should update automatically
when the housekeeping task runs every 24 hours but you can force an
update by running 'mythutil --updateradiostreams'
* I'm slowly adding logos for streams when time allows but it's a time
consuming task so any help finding suitable logos would be appreciated.
* Currently MythMusic only tries the first playback URL for each stream
even though each stream may have up to 5 backup URL's it could try (my
test app tries all URLs to determine if a stream is working or not) .
