    Hello there,

    I'm building an app for a friends business, they run an internet radio station as part of the business and would like to have a feature in the app that allows users to stream the station live. I've had a look around and there doesn't seem to me much in the way of options. Can anyone give me any tips ot pointers?

    Thanks
    Si

    Hi, thanks.

    Do you know if you can link any stream URL to this or does it have to come from an existing list as part of the plug in?

    better ask on that thread, but surely that should be possible, also says:
    - Receive music from your own server (e.g. Icecast, VLC server etc.)

    there seems to be demo builds available, maybe those can be tested with your url even.

    *you can do basic audio stream listener with unity www (deprecated) or unitywebrequest too
