Radio Streaming Sites

[Charnubs]

So i've just been looking into creating a radio streamer with my pi.
I have everything setup and working with the bbc radio stations that are available but however i am looking on how i would get my local area radio station to stream from a website through vnc. I am also using the google assistant sdk to listen for a key word so that it can play the station i would like to listen to.
I really hope that you can help.
Thanks

Maybe look at some of the audio streaming software that people use like http://www.mopidy.com or https://volumio.org

Both allow you to search for radio stations around the world. Both also serve web frontends meaning that you can use the directly through a browser without vnc

I stream my local classical station using this shell script (it part of my "alarm clock", see the last line for the actual command)):

Code: Select all

pi@alrmclk2 ~/bin $ cat runkdfc
#!/bin/bash

PATH=/home/pi/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games
export DISPLAY=:0.0
