Thank you! I listen to BBC R3 all the time and it was always an annoyance.

How do I use your data in Roon so that it knows to pick up the metadata? Thank you. Sorry if this is a stupid question.

Look for BBC Radio 3 using the magnifying glass, select it, and hit play.

Oh, so your metadata-acquisition etc is all built in to Roon? In thought I’d have to import some data into Roon for it to be able to get the metadata.

72

The simple answer is yes.

Bonjour Rémi, penses-tu que ce serait réalisable pour les radios RMN ?

@Dirk-Pitt all 4 channels seem to stream the same music at the moment, and share the same data source. Let me know if there are hours where they differ so that I can investigate.
