I never submitted bug before I hope I am posting this correctly. I searched all forums and I went though all RC1, RC2, and RC3 posts before submitting this.

When you open up Media Portal TV Server Configuration then you select Radio Channels and Click on Add button an Edit channel button appears.

When you select Web-Stream a button appears "Search SHOUTcast". A secondary window appears for the shoutcast search.

When you type anything in the field and click on the search botton it says "searching" but does not pull any results. No matter what is typed.

When I try to enter the URL manually and add the bit rate I get the message "No tuning details"

Hope you can help.

66 views and no real help... Well 2 days later after messing around. I figured out that you can not preview the web-stream(internet radio station) but when you go into Media Portal and click on station from My Radio it works.

So for anyone else that reads this. The search function does not work. Use Winamp to search for streams. On the display window(contains play time, equalizer, stream info, etc) Right click. Select (view file info then copy the URL and paste it into My Radio.

Don't go crazy with preview to make sure it works. That only works for FM stations and TV channels. Go to Media Portal and it should work.

yes you found a bug in the relesae candadate so as a rusult it was fixed before the release, oh wait, you found a bug and it NOT fixed ever, but a release version was made anyway.

This feature still doesnt work in 1.0.2, i would suggest removing it or disabling it or even better fixing it!

Is there a configuration file for the shoutcast search? Like an .ini or similar. Shoutcast changed its config several times in the past. I know this because the shoutcast library plugin had to be reconfigured at least twice last year. I could edit the settings to the current setup.
