Question about nextcloud share about radio-api HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi,

your steps seem right to me. Maybe there are some issues for Radio-API connecting to the nextcloud.

To debug this:
If you add the same nextcloud share as podcast, does the Radio show each mp3 file as an episode? (If yes, we know that Radio-API can correctly fetch the list of files from the nextcloud.)

Is the radio then able to play the episodes, i.e., audio files from the nextcloud podcast?

Do you use the Proxy via Docker install or the PHP-based proxy (non-Docker install)?

Sorry for late reply due to holidays.

Situation is still the same even with pidcasts.

Regarding proxy - do I need to use a proxy?

I use my own nextcloud and pihole as my dns proxy with modified settings to re-route the frontier ip adress but to my understanding this should not have any impact on the mentioned nextcloud share. Correct?

If I open the GUI and paste the nextcloud share for a folder containing the mp3 files, nothing will be shown even if proxy is selected.

Hi,

you might need to use the proxy, if your nextcloud is only accessible via HTTPS. However, this seems not to be the current problem.

So, as you do not get the list of mp3 files when using the nextcloud share as podcast, you may need to change the settings of the nextcloud:
Radio-API uses WebDav to access the files in the share and this is only enabled if the option described in the box at https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/user_manual/en/files/access_webdav.html#accessing-public-shares-over-webdav is enabled.

Thank you. I changed the settings in nextcloud to allow webdav but still same. At podcast on the radio there are no files.

My settings:

Anyhow, I think, I'm doing something wrong. Maybe you have one more tipp for me.

Hi,
with the screenshots I see the problem. Radio-API assumes a nextcloud link looks like https://cloud.domain.tld/s/token without index.php.
It should be possible in your case to remove the /index.php.
(This link may not work in the browser, but Radio-API can hopefully parse it correctly.)

I will later do an update to correctly identify nextcloud links with index.php.

from radio-api.

Sorry, now I understand the documentation about the link. I changed the link and tried it again. The radio does now display the mp3s but cannot play it. It tries it and nothing happens. No error message.

Do you have any other suggestions?

Thank you

from radio-api.

Thats good, that the files are listed now.
I think, I got the problem why the files do not play. I will need to do an update to Radio-API to correctly work with index.php in nextcloud shares.
