After hearing that Chris Evans was going back to Absolute Radio I thought I would try the FLAC streams. They all work fine but there is no metadata. In fact they do not seem to provide metadata for the aac streams either, not even a station logo. Very strange.

It can manage it fine for mp3 and AAC+ streams, but as soon as it's Ogg, it gets all confused. At first I thought it might have something to do with the new line / carriage return character in the .m3u playlist file but it makes no difference even after this is removed. I'm wanting to add the Absolute and Magic streams to the RadioFeeds plugin for all to access but I'm stumbling at this point. I could strip out the .m3u from the addresses before presenting them in the station list, but it's not the tidiest way of doing things and I'd rather avoid having to do it this way.

Re: [slim] Absolute Radio FLAC streams not working
I don't have to hand but it's easy to find. Open up the stream defined in Absolute Radio Links page in VLC. In VLC right click on the Stream Title and open the "Information" Tab. At the bottom of the "information page/general tab" you will see a "Location" showing the true URI of the network stream not the playlist defined in the links page (Which LMS can't process). You can also see the FLAC parameters under the "information page/codec tab" Enter the "Location" stream address in the "LMS Radio/Tune In URL" box and save the playing stream as a favourite or playlist. Took me longer to type this than giving you the URL directly but you can use this methodology in other situations.

Even though it says the file type is OGG OGG is the transport/container mechanism. It is typically used with Vorbis (which is audio compression) but with these stream it is used to contain Flac streams.

Re: [slim] Absolute Radio FLAC streams not working
I can get Absolute Radio Noughties on this URL: http://icecast-beta.timlradio.co.uk/absoluteradio00s.ogg Derived from the VLC information page. However the Sixties stream seems to be the same.

I forgot to post thelink in my message but you located the same page. Funny thing about this page is that I can;t find it easily from AbsoluteUK home page so I'm guessing it is is out of date. So possibilities are Ogg/Flac streams have been turned off or player is not right. Rune users seems to be playing them OK on Oct 2016 - so perhaps VLC version/build may not be not right.

Re: [slim] Absolute Radio FLAC streams not working
i haven't been able to receive the Absolute Radio flac streams for a few months. I went through the measures that have been suggested here without success. I came to the conclusion that they had ceased to provide these streams but not bothered to update their "where to hear us" pages. I could be wrong?

BBC R3 Flac is DASH Flac so it is totally different to Ogg/Flac and will not work for Absolute. AFAIK LMS is not setup to play OGG/Flac - you would need custom tyopes and convert conf files with a 3rd party player to convert. What player do you use to test the ogg/flac stream actually works ?
