Update 20260820 - bookmark issue #2159

As it turns out MPD playlist contains only URLs of web radios, no other data of the same URLs. There's no way to tell which directory to get relevant data. URLs must be unique, the same as before, after all.

Try remove duplicate URLs from /srv/http/data/mpd/radio

My /radio contains only: ^^.
I have 33 radio-stations on root (/srv/http/data/webradio) and much more stations within subfolders.

Tried a full library-update - no changes. And I've noticed, my Web Radio-counter always shows "1".

Try: /srv/http/bash/webradio-convert.sh

It helps partially:

• playlist show right coverart(s)
• webradio-coverart are shown at bookmarks, now
• counter is still 1
• all positive effects are gone after deleting/adding a webradio-station

coverart.* or cover.* - that's the big question ;-)

Creating new Webradio-Station with new stationart produce a "coverart.jpg" in its folder. Library and playlist finds/use them (since latest update). Playback-screen tries to find "cover.jpg", though.
"Normal" albums seems to have both. Cover.jpg is a big one and coverart.jpg a very small one (I guess for faster library-listing).

Do we need both for webradio's, too?

Just updated #2153 with a pointer towards the Player page issue there. Not necessarily a fix for this issue but might be a pointer ?

Reran /srv/http/bash/webradio-convert.sh, deleted and recreated bookmark for BBC Radio 2 but still get a Star not the station logo. Still failing to find cover.jpg in /srv/http.cover.jpg' rather than '/srv/http/data/webradio/'BBC Radio 2'

I am running a RPi 3A+ with image i20260719, updated to all production releases and very latest UPDATE branch.

I think there's an issue with your URL to BBC-Radio:
http://as-hls-ww-live.akamaized.net/pool_74208725/live/ww/bbc_radio_two/bbc_radio_two.isml/bbc_radio_two-audio%3d128000.norewind.m3u8
I tried to add this station - and I've got same issue as you. Stations with direct-link work fine on my system.

Please try the UPDATE again. It will create the missing coverart.* of webradio stations.

@rern
I have applied the latest UPDATE branch in the last few minutes. It completes with the following:

find: paths must precede expression: `common.php'
find: possible unquoted pattern after predicate `-name'?

I am afraid though that it DOES NOT fix my problem in that it now looks for the coverart.jpg in '/srv/http' (as opposed to originally '/srv/http/cover.jpg'). This can be seen with 'journalctl -f':

Sep 05 15:46:29 rAudio-Test nginx[409]: 2026年09月05日 15:46:29 [error] 409#409: *668 open() "/srv/http/coverart.jpg" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 192.168.86.50, server: localhost, request: "GET /coverart.jpg?v=1788511072 HTTP/1.1", host: "raudio-test", referrer: "http://raudio-test/"

I presume it should be looking fro: '/srv/http/data/webradio/'BBC Radio 2'/coverart.jpg ?

The good news is that coverart.jpg is now created for BBC Radio 2 (and others):

rAudio-Test:/srv/http/data/webradio # ls -ls 'BBC Radio 2'

@AndyFx12 - the BBC Radio 2 Direct (as opposed to the 'BBC Radio 2') URL is a UK restricted URL for the BBC and will onlyu work if you are located on the UK mainland, otherwise it will fail. Surprisingly, if I bookmark the BBC Radio 2 Direct station then the bookmark DOES work and plays (for me) but the Playback screen logo is not shown.

@ rern - the above might be another pointer to this issue. My network is based on 192.168.86.* and looking at some of the code you have been working on, rAudio seems to (now) assume that 192.168.. is related to uPnP ? These streams on my 192.168.86.* network have worked with Bookmarks for a long time before this issue occurred. Interestingly as noted before the bookmark is a star but the Playback screen correctly shows the station logo.

Chris

The new UPDATE should handle URLs with * correctly now.

@rern
This one (at common.sh) fixes my webradio-counter-issue:

Deleting a webradio works fine after this patch, too.

and this one (at webradio-convert.sh) fixes my bookmark-issue:

Other theory: $dir / $dir_radio is built with missing "/" (maybe on shared-data only)?

Hi Andy,

Yes, you're right. Without the trailing slash, it will not follow symlinks. Now they are find -L $dir... (the same as find $dir/ ...)

Do you still have issues with bookmark and station arts?

Hi rern,

latest changes fixes my bookmark issues. Thanks for your awesome work!

The only artwork issue is at the moment with Spotify. But this is a completely different thing.

@ceejayemm
Can you confirm, that issues are solved?
I would close this issue.

I can confirm that by removing / adding station art everything seems to be ok. However webconvert.sh doesn't seem to do anything. Is it supposed to a) convert cover.jpg to coverart.jpg OR b) convert coverart.jpg to cover.jpg OR c) both ?
