How to listen to the NPR internet radio station on Roon?

[Gareth_Irwin]

Hi, I think it’s NPR that we listened to whilst travelling through parts of America, talking mostly like radio 4?

They have lots of apps for iPhone etc, but I would prefer to just have a stream URL in the radio bit of Roon.

Does anyone know how I can get this in Roon?

In Roon,

• click the 3 bars in the upper left corner of the screen
• select “Internet Radio”
• click “Add Station” button
• paste a URL, such as “https://tunein.com/radio/WAMU-885-s27111/” (NPR from American University, Washington DC)

Internet Radio URL Swap Meet

With Roon 1.2 users will be able to add Internet Radio as a source by entering the URL of an MP3 or AAC stream (or a TuneIn web page). Many stations have multiple streams of varying quality. This thread is for people to swap info for favourite stations; particularly alternative higher quality streams that TuneIn may not be using. There will be other threads for general discussion, feature requests or support issues associated with Internet Radio, please keep this one as a repository of URL inf…

Roon uses a program called “Discourse” to run the Forum. The character limit is a feature of Discourse, not Roon, per se.

I was not aware I could just use a tunein link thanks for that!

This details the various NPR stuff that’s available. Note that specific college stations (like the American University link) may have their own programming mixed in.
