I had not heard of shoutcast before, but just went to their website.

At this page, it looks like the service broadcasts using mp3 files: https://www.shoutcast.com/Pricing

So if you haven't already, you may want to try ending your url with .mp3 rather than .wav

Hi

Hmm - Still no go.

It says it's streaming - and the device says it's playing, but no sound.

All other stations work.

Very odd.

I've tried mp3 and wav as an extension. They both say their casting, but no audio. Must be my radio stations software but it's ok using Winamp for example. I've tried the local and external IP too.

BubbleUPnP can handle it.

In the Playlist tab, Menu > Add Stream URL. Or send the pls link from a web browser to BubbleUPnP.
