Icecast Radio Directory shows only a few entries

Postby Simmi » 19 Sep 2021 12:03

Hi, I'm not technical with VLC, I'm just an ordinary user and when I come to look at the Icecast Radio Listings after a while of downtime, I see only a few entries now (53 in the list) compared to how it was.

I've searched this forum for similar reports that I can understand and see nothing I recognise that is a fix for this issue.

Is there some option I should turn on or off?
As far I can see, it's not a firewall issue - I have none.

This is the same on both my Macs here. I think I have the latest version installed, - 3.0.16 Vetinari (Intel 64bit)

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Try it with the icecast-new.lua file, which fixes some problems:

In my case, VLC has 17294 entries in the icecast directory.

Awesome, thanks
I see alot more - yes. Almost perfect - just a few stations which I like, I had previously managed to save in my Media Library before it mysteriously went belly up. Many of those bookmarked stations in (Media Library) don't show in the new list, but I can live with that.

Cheers
