barcrest just added the option to trow some radio files in the albums music so you can just simple select them as if they where mp3, cool option i would say, so freebox its    the juke soft you are looking for, worth donating the 25 bucks... ;D

You could just build a library for radio stations only. I just updated the demo to the latest version, it should do what you want.

I did that for Arcade Music Box ago, but I diddent want to add this feature because I really diddent like the idea adding radios manually.

I'm not sure the exists a server or such program to retrive radios list from and then sorting to the country..... But not found 100% which one I should use. I'm pretty sure it would been a good idea to create a external app to create a list of stations in a contain folder list structure like #contingent#/#country# (#state#)/#station name#. That app should been started by the jukebox app and/or by a plugin.

Hence that is why I never added that radio feature in my jukebox software (even its should been pretty easy, but not sure how it should been included).

This is why i added a seperate tab for radio stations. You can then just drop more stations in and update that DB/Library to pick up the newly added stations. It's not really a jukebox thing having radio stations but a lot of users wanted it and it seems quite popular since i added it.

I did radio stations in Arcade Music Box, but was not needed that in MultiFE (MultiJuke). Hence I did never all that.

I could add these 2 extensions for the Explorer Library system in MultiFe, if I wish to do that and then radios would been added in MultiFE and could shown as own library.

It would been more for to do a real Radio Library more automatic using a exists server based list.

I dont have tabs like E-Touch, but can been any type of library, but I diddent think its a popular request, so I should look on that (even I have 2 music projects by now).

I didn't think it would be popular either but i was surprised, if it's easy for you to add support then you should.  :cheers:

might see what Im doing (I did that in Arcade Music Box and could been timed).

I have not worked in MultiFE in some time now (due musical projects for some homebrew DS game and now iPhone, so I did not have time yet, but still have full site etc).

I matter so see I can get MultiFE ported to Mac (I just got a iMac Mini recently) first and then I might add the radio feature in same way I did for Arcade Music Box... Its better than nothing :D. It might take some works, because iTunes use Embedded coverarts, unlike Windows Media Player, so I think that feature should been added first (which I think all it does is automatic extract them to folder.jpg if not exits or have a bigger resoulutions).
