Excellent News! I’ve been listening to the station since you mentioned it and like it a lot.
Hmm, some of the links that should work, don’t .
I’ve added a link that seems ok. Please try now.

Hi Brian,
That worked. Thanks for your help with that.
A post was merged into an existing topic: Some FLAC streams removed due to metadata which involves the stream logically starting and stopping for each track
Then why does Roon keep showing the following messages simultaneously: “Started Live Radio UNDO” and “Unable to play this station. Its address may have changed, or it may be temporarily unavailable.”?
Hmm, I briefly removed the geo-restriction and attempted to play the stream in Roon - because of my location it plays silence but it did play - only to stop after 4 seconds.
Something odd and I’ll let the Devs know. However I have found an alternative mp3 stream which you might try.

Hello @Daniel_Burkhard , I’ve updated the links, try now.
Fantastic support
it’s working!
Good morning. The live radio stream for the Current 89.3 does not pass song metadata. The screen shows an an error ETIMEDOUT. the station music does stream, but it would be nice to sing song titles. The titles display properly if I use the Current’s native app, just not on Roon. Thanks!
This appears to be a problem with the metadata service.
Pinging @alec_eiffel .
Hi - 93xrt metadata no longer works (it hasn’t worked in awhile): Chicago Finest Rock Station - WXRT-FM | 93XRT
I can’t figure out how to manually add a radio stream so that I can try my old one (I’m just not seeing the “+ Add station” anywhere):

Thanks for the help!
The MP3 stream should show metadata (I can’t fully test as I am in the UK).
The aac stream is an HLS and Roon cannot currently deal with metadata in that type of stream.
However, I’ll discuss with @alec_eiffel and see if his metadata service can be set up for this)
PS to add a stream, use my live_radio, see this help article. However, the .pls stream you referenced, re-directs to the mp3 stream that Roon has in its database)
Thanks, Brian! I just now tried the MP3 stream and I do now see the metadata (I didn’t think to try that - so thanks for the tip). I’m okay using the MP3 stream.
And thanks for teaching this old dog yet again how to add manual radio stations
What trips me up each time is that I try to find it under ‘Browse / Live Radio’, not thinking/remembering that it’s actually under ‘My Library / My Live Radio’). Thank you, sir ![]()
Good evening! Any luck resolving my above Metadata request on The Current, 89.3FM? I believe @alec_eiffel was pinged to look at this.
Thanks!!
Tony
Yep, saw that, The Current changed it’s website structure and I need to find another way to scrap metadata. I am confident a solution will be found once I have time (which means next week unfortunately…)
FYI - I have done it in my stuff - feel free to examine
Thank you! Busy time of year, no doubt. I appreciate any help you can offer on any timeline. It’s been this way for quite some time.
I think I have fixed 93XRT metadata: can you check it is displaying the correct artist/song info ?
