We have some Panasonic smart music devices using Qualcomm 'AllPlay'. For a few years we have been using them, happily streaming Internet radio.
Sadly, Qualcomm have recently dropped support for their protocol. Internet radio no longer works on the Panasonic devices.This is annoying, but I thought the answer would be our Serviio server. The Panasonic devices can receive DLNA feeds from Serviio and Serviio has an option to enter radio streaming content as 'Online Sources'.
My plan was to point Serviio at the stream, then pick it up on any DLNA client. I've entered the details. Serviio tells me the URLs are valid sound content. I was expecting that my DLNA clients would have a new category of media from which I select my radio station

Can someone confirm that a DLNA server can serve and client can receive a stream as I've described?
Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?

Thanks!
Steve

SteveC: Yep! That seems to do the trick thanks @Jase2985! I'm very greatful and a little surprised that only four people have responded to this post and you are the only one who is trying to do the same thing as me.
I wonder what other people do? Be interesting to know how many people have a centrally managed music system. I suspect most would be Sonos or Bose, but there are others, all expensive by our standards.
:-)

 

like i mentioned earlier i uses a kodi box which has all the streaming built into that, so serviio in my house is just for serving up movies from my desktop.

 

i hadnt actually done any of the above before, when your topic came up it just peaked my curiosity and i wanted to see if it was possible so gave it a go.

 

i use serviio as when i installed plex it had 8gb of thumbnails and about 250k worth of files for a media library that didn't even crack 10k. it was too much bloatware for me. serviio was much more streamlined as i didnt need anything too fancy and it just worked.
