ERROR: Failed to decode MPC Error (Solved)

[irishwill2008]

Hey guys,

I noticed that if i try to add a stream i sometimes get "ERROR: Failed to decode - followed by URL of stream". Weird thing is.. If i replace spaces with %20, the stream works a charm. Any idea why this may be? How come some streams that dont have %20 for space works fine?

Example:
http://streamsite.com/tracks/rihanna - work.mp3 // Doesnt work
http://streamsite.com/tracks/james blunt - beautiful.mp3 //Works

BUT

http://streamsite.com/tracks/rihanna - work.mp3 will work if entered like: http://streamsite.com/tracks/rihanna%20-%20work.mp3

Please note that these examples are not working, i just made up the urls to demonstrate my issue.

Hi Will,

i have no idea what you are talking about.

Where and how do you add the streams?
Where do you get the errors?

Hi Frank,

I create a playlist and i then go into the /playlists directory and open the m3u. From there, i then add mp3 stream URLs into the file. So when i load the playlist via GUI (Runeaudio) they load into the queue and play! Thing is, sometimes they dont play unless i make sure the urls i enter in the m3u has %20 instead of plain space. Another way would be to add the track via webradio section. Give it a name, enter the url and i get the same issue!

Hope this helps.

Cheers.

Hi Will,

stream URLs have to be encoded (spaces replaced by %20).
URLs are not allowed to have spaces!
