The Listen page¶
It is the heart of your app: your listeners press play and listen to your radio live.
Where to set it up¶
In Menu and pages, add or edit a page of the Listen type.
What you fill in¶
- Audio stream address (required): your radio's listening address. If your radio is broadcast by PROMOMÉDIA, you find it in Name and listening address.
- Metadata stream address (optional): to fill in only if your stream does not itself send the current title and artist.
The player then displays the current song and, depending on your theme, its cover art in the background.
If you are broadcast by PROMOMÉDIA, the metadata address to paste here is on your radio's page: see Your service's page.
The cover art displayed¶
For each song, the app looks for cover art in this order: your radio's cover art library, then online music catalogues. If none is found, it displays your default cover, and failing that your radio's logo.
The default cover is set for the whole app, in Visuals: see The app visuals. Stations with no title displayed show this cover or the logo directly.
Several radios¶
To offer several streams, see Several radios in one app.
