How do I locate URL of radio station

Hi Roon community,

I recently lost one of the URL of a radio station that I love listening - Melody FM from Malaysia.

I seem to cant find the new URL and all the guide that I try from internet to no avail.

Can I get some help here.
Much appreciated,
CM

Hello @chow_min_tan , I’ve added Melody FM for you. Please check if OK.

It plays for me.

What are you running Roon on? Is it a NAS?

If so, you may have an issue where .aac streams won’t play because you are missing the appropriate codec. One of these links may help you install the necessary codec:
Qnap
Synology

(Finding the link for this station entails analysing the streams used. Not straightforward.
For other stations fmstream.org can sometimes help )

hi i’m running on roon

roon server version 2.0 (build 1496)

But what is Roon running on?

The question is about the hardware Roon runs on. Is it a PC or NAS?

i’m running roon on PC windows 11

I can play the radio station fine in the UK, so this is an international AAC stream. It would seem that you don’t have the necessary codec installed.

There are some reports online that Windows 11 doesn’t always play AAC, especially after an upgrade from Windows 10.

You could try installing the codecs in Windows Media Player or from the Microsoft website, or use the standard K-Lite Codec Pack.

Are you running Windows N edition?

Either way, @mjw 's comments are good.
