Advanced configuration to add a radio streaming URL from manual

[Linnnaimmusic]

According to the Asset OS X manual, manual radio streaming URLs can be added by clicking 'Manual Internet Radio Streams' in Advanced configuration settings. So when I click on Asset in the menubar or dock, then click on Advanced, I get a list with Settings Override, Library Exclusions, User Rename, Browse Tree, and Custom Images. I don't see an option called Manual Internet Radio Streams. Where do I find that to be able click on it and manually add a URL? What am I missing? Thanks.

You have the latest version?

[Linnnaimmusic]

I don't, still using R2023-05-15, on my Mac I'm really conservative and I've had to stay with Sonoma 14.7.2 for a couple of pieces of software. I'm loathe to make any changes right now, otherwise I would. And, that said, would 'advanced' be any different in the latest version?

This was added in the last update.

[Linnnaimmusic]

Thanks for the info. I will obviously have to update my software. I appreciate the support you provide for your software.

So I finally updated to R2025-02-03, I just added URLs for Radio Paradise.

So when I open the Linn app on my iPhone, and choose Asset UPnP (I also use minimserver), I'm not sure how I access these URLs?

Also, is there a way to access 'Artist' only, versus 'Album Artist'? In many cases I don't have album artists specified, just the artist, so when I select 'All Album Artists', I have a huge number of songs listed under 'Unknown Album Artist'.

I never had this situation before using R2023-05-15.

Thanks!

Artist, use Dynamic Browsing >> Artist >>choose then[list albums] or[list tracks]

[Linnnaimmusic]

Thanks. I missed that.

Regarding the Radio Paradise URL I added via 'manual internet radio stream' — where would I access that in the menu?

Insert ... User Radio Stations ... into the Browse Tree ... it is not included in the default Browse Tree ... It took me an age to figure that out when I first added URLs to ... Manual Internet Radio Streams

Thank you Graham. So I went into Advanced, Browse Tree, Edit Browse Tree, clicked on the dropdown menu that was TuneIn Internet Radio (I'll never use it), replaced TuneIn with User Radio Stations, pressed Apply, went into the Linn iOS app, clicked on Radio Paradise Flac Main (same URLs that I used via copy/paste in my two WiiM units), and, nothing. Not sure what I'm missing here?

[Linnnaimmusic]

Okay. So here goes.

With respect to Spoon and fellow forum members.

I also use MinimServer/MinimStreamer, and Radio Paradise Flac, as good as it is, just never sounded as good as streamed files, Redbook, Hi-res.

So it's not really important to me. And this is getting too complicated.

On top of that, in regards to "Artist, use Dynamic Browsing >> Artist >>choose then[list albums] or[list tracks]", I don't see the latter two choices. I can't get good old plain 'Artist' going down this path.

I can't handle any more change/complication in my life now.

I went back to R2023-05-15 just now.

It just works.

I have 'Artist' working again.

It's flawless on this Silicon Mac, it works great on my Intel Mac.

I appreciate the technical support here.

But I have no patience troubleshooting all of this.

I don't want to waste any more of your time.

Best,

Dave
