For sure I live in North of France, and response time is very fine for me
I regret not having saved as favorites my lacking WAV stations
I understand this kind of complexity, as long as it does not come from business side but from individual âŚ
Last suggestion :
You may consider to re-add âAdded Stationsâ in your menu, same than we did with VTUNER.NAIM before.
Then, with this new reactivated module, I will be able to add these stations by entering the URL âŚ
I always consider itâs a bit sad to loose a menu (whatever the reason) from an older version to a new version.
May be in the future, you will be able to reactivate âadded stationâ.
Itâs always a good thing to add âfully manuallyâ, by entering an URL, instead of asking NAIM to add a radio we did not find.
But one more time, many thanks for all your quick and clear ansers ! I appreciated !
It was delayed as we were waiting for XPeri for their metadata feed, but as they seem to be taking their time itâs been added without the enhanced meta feed.
This is has been a long term issue with the Naim Label channels. When we setup the system we were promised by the playout software provider that they would add support for Flac+meta in OGG container, but they never did. At some point we need to switch over to a different system, but in practice itâs quite low down on our list of priorities at the moment.
NME1/2 - that closed down years ago, but wqs replaced with The Music Machine 1/2. VTuner never updated their database so they have the The Music Machine claiming to be NME.

Although we support Mixcloud live streams, this channel seems to be recorded sessions only, so can only be listened to via Mixcloud. If you can find a live stream let me know.
fsck-ing banging tunes on there! Very much enjoying it. I like the pirate radio station vibes, and it takes me back to all those trailblazing stations that often showed the big biys how to do it, playing the real popular stuff when the BBCâs and the like were outright discriminatory.
Even during my hardcore hip-hop days, my guilty pleasure was a lot of Soul, even going as far as buying some great imports from Don Christieâs and other stores in that Lundun, so this is like catnip for me.
If I had known I will loose my âKurtâs non saved stationsâ, I wonât have updated my Iradio list because I mainly use Kurtâs âŚ
I really hope Naim will re-add the âadded stationâ section because I lack this menu âŚ
I fully support Steveâs answer saying itâs not real pro customizing, some informations are missing, latence time may be high, but this âadded stationâ should be used under userâs responsability.
I decide if I want to manually add a station and I agree I am responsible if not all metadatas are displayed, network cuts or whatever as soon as this radio is not from an âofficial list/serverâ âŚ
I for sure understand in such situation I wonât be able to write any claim on this âŚ
I also understand my gen1 ND5XS is not able to read standard Naim hires station, but thatâs not a reason, in my humble opinion, not being able to hear anymore a working Hires station because specific customizing ⌠and âadded stationâ will solve this issue âŚ
On Naim label stations i donât have a problem hiding this in the system somewhere. Itâs our content - no laws are being broken. Weâve turned a blind eye to various stuff like this going on for years on our channels,
On commercial stations who are licensed to play music to given countries / regions, and hence have to do all the reporting / payments to play then its a problem. Using a proxy like this bypasses various server side geo location licensing checks + it makes it look like only one user (ip) in Germany is listening multiple times. Understandably we canât promote such things. Cool idea but best kept as a private thing!
Regarding Add Stations, we have that feature but only on products from 2017 onwards (newer platform) and we store the users information inside the product rather than in the cloud. As soon as we have user accounts then we must comply with all the data protection laws around the world which is a big job. VTuner was from a day where it didnât consider any laws like that.
Thanks for clear explanations.
For sure I understand all the legacy / policy which I did not have in mind âŚ
My Nd5XS is from 2013.
But I wonât buy a new one for that purpose
I only regret not having saved under a number (I have some available / empty in my 40 list) other Kurtâs stations I had through Added Stations.
But I have 5 of them, should be enough âŚ
Thanks again, it has been a real pleasure to read you !
