Custom URL not streaming from Sonos

Hi,

 

I am trying to add the following custom URL to sonos and stream but its not working.

I can play using this URL on Chrome or in VLC player.

As per VLC this MPEG AAC Audio (mp4a), 44.1Khz, 32 bits per sample.

Is this stream not supported?

Here is the URL - https://tamil.crabdance.com:8002/4

    Hi @manokarthick,

     

    I’m afraid this station isn’t supported.  Per our guide on Adding an Internet Radio Station to Sonos, the station’s stream needs to be in MP3, AAC, or WMA audio format.

    If the station has an alternate stream link that is in a supported format, you’ll be able to add that to your Sonos system.
