After my fresh install, some web radios are OK, some are not and nothing happens when I click on the UI.
Investigating the pb, this is not a webUI pb, but a mpd pb. Indeed, when I ssh to volumio, and sends the link of the webradio, using mpc, the pb still occurs.
Search for the radio you want and download the m3u file (right click on radio name --> save link as; NOTE: It does not work with safari for me). Rename it as convenient and drop it in the WEBRADIO folder of volumio.
In the WebUI, update the WEBRADIO folder, and you will see it listed there.
Alternately, drop the m3u file in the playlists folder of volumio.
It will appear in the browse tab of the WebUI, outside of the WEBARDIO folder (you may have to update the mpd DB before it appears)
If you drop the m3u file in the playlists folder, it will also appear as “saved playlist” in Mpod (don t know about other clients); No need to have access to WebUI to play webradios!
Also, if you use IR remote, you can easily tell mpd to load and play the webradio (or any other saved playlist) when pressing a button on the remote. No need to look at your phone/tablet!
Works for me like a charm with cubox-i2ultra and volumio 1.5.
Just give it a try!

I have the same problem (with the same french radio group, by the way
If I understand, the problem was solved by compiling/upgrading mpd in Volumio ?
Is it difficult to do this upgrade (on a BeagleBone Black) ? I’m quite a newbie in Linux
Hi Stephane,
Thanks a lot, that would be a lot simpler!
I already tried a few variations (with a .m3u file, or various .pls ones), but I didn’t find the proper syntax…
