[Request] "Radio" addon integration.

Hi,

Wouldn't it be great to tune in to your favorite radio channels without the need of having the tv turned on?

I think this is a great idea.

save them as a pls file and you can access them in file mode thru the remote

Or you could load a .pls or .m3u playlist file with all your radio stations when XBMC starts.

You can then use the skip buttons on your IR remote to choose the right radio station :-)

Can even use the 0-9 keys on the IR remote as presets..

This would be really, really awesome and I hope it will be included in the next version..

- Create a new empty Text Document;
- open it and enter the URL of your radio station (e.g. http://streamserver.c-dance.com:8320);
- Close and save the file;
- rename the extension of the file to .pls or .m3u ;
- open the file with the XBMC Remote for Android

I would also like an option to remotely activate a 'Favorite' as last week, the bulb in the DLP went out, and me & the Missus usually listen to BBC Radio 2 (via iPlayer) before we go to work and without a screen, we couldn't navigate to it.

Luckily, we had iPhone4s and an app which gets the internet feed of the station which we airplayed to the ATV. Now that we have Android phones, that doesn't appear to be an option.

I have a feature request myself:

I would like to be able to browse through radio stations offered by Shoutcast or ListenLive.

XBMC Remote is currently unable to activate XBMC music plugins by itself.
