Created attachment 178101 [details] NRK Radio streams URLs The Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation, NRK, have changed their live radio streams. The following links are the updated URLs for the NRK streams MP3, P1, P2 and P3, which are default in Rhythmbox: NRK MP3 l -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_mp3_mp3_l m ->http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_mp3_mp3_m h -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_mp3_mp3_h NRK P1 l -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p1_ostlandssendingen_mp3_l m ->http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p1_ostlandssendingen_mp3_m h -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p1_ostlandssendingen_mp3_h NRK P2 l -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p2_mp3_l m ->http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p2_mp3_m h -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p2_mp3_h NRK P3 l -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p3_mp3_l m ->http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p3_mp3_m h -> http://lyd.nrk.no/nrk_radio_p3_mp3_h l: Low Quality mp3 stream (32kb/s) m: Medium Quality mp3 stream (96 kb/s) h: High Quality mp3 stream (192 kb/s) A comprehensive list of the new NRK streams (MP3 and WMA) can be found here: http://www.nrk.no/tjenester/lyd/ I'm attaching a Rhythmbox DB .xml file containing the updated stream info for the above Radio streams. Feel free to use it if sufficient.
We only put ogg vorbis streams in the default list. Do the current stream URLs not work?
Nope, the current URL streams no longer work. They all point to a prerecorded voice recording stating that the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation has changed their streams, referencing a URL to visit for updated streams details. It seems the previous ogg vorbis streams were provided by Osftold University College (http://media.hiof.no) as a community effort and sadly terminated on 31st December 2010. The service has been taken over by NRK who now only provide MP3 and WMA streams.
OK, I'll remove the streams then. Thanks for letting us know about this.
No problem. It's a pity to see these streams being removed, but I understand why.
I've removed the NRK streams in commit 17a6f16.
