Spanish internet radio not streaming in UK

My Spanish internet radio stations are no longer working in the UK.  These include Blue Marlin, Ibiza Sonica, Ibiza Global Radio, Costa Del Mar - Chillout.

All other TuneIn stations from outside the UK seem to be working fine and Ibiza Sonica is steaming fine when you go to their website.

If you search for Ibiza Sonica in the Sonos app it comes up as a Sonos Radio station but won’t play.

 

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

 

Thanks

 

Matt

    Nice list castalla how do I get it working on my Sonos play1 1st gen? 

    You follow the instructions here to add a radio station by URL:

    https://support.sonos.com/s/article/260?language=en_US

    Ibiza Sonica - http://94.75.227.133:8136 

    Ibiza Global Radio - http://37.59.254.24:8024

    Blue Marlin - http://94.75.227.133:8635

     

    If you can find the stream, you’re normally given the option to download the M3U file or something like that. When I opened the M3U for Ibiza Global Radio, the contents look like:

    #EXTM3U
    #EXTINF:-1,(#1 - 402/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://37.59.254.26:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#2 - 408/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://37.59.254.24:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#3 - 410/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://46.105.171.218:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#4 - 410/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://37.59.254.31:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#5 - 414/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://37.59.254.28:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#6 - 417/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://46.105.171.217:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#7 - 441/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://37.59.254.27:8024/
    #EXTINF:-1,(#8 - 447/750) : Ibiza Global Radio :
    https://37.59.254.25:8024/

    Just take one of the URL’s and change it from HTTPS to HTTP and it should work for you. Added stations appear under Radio by TuneIn > My Radio Stations

    Ibiza stations here: https://www.internet-radio.com/search/?radio=ibiza

    You need to check the m3u or pls file for the actual stream url.

        Mrpedros thank you very much 👍🏻 It’s working.
        Can this be done from IGR original web site? Maybe the sound quality would be better ? Or from their app?

        No worries. And not as far as I’m aware. That URL was taken from the M3U file I got to stream directly from their website, couldn’t find another address :(

          Same issue for me…. it’s still allows you chose and play it - but nothing happens. One work around for Ibiza Global Radio is to play from their app and then airplay it via Sonos. Not ideal. But a temporary solution ?

          First off the, I don’t think TuneIn are being honest, I installed an app called Simple Radio on my Echo and then asked it to stream Ibiza Global Radio and it did so, without vpn and without issue.

           

          So I’m not buying the Geo Block they are claiming is coming from these stations.

           

          Has anyone got a working https stream for ibiza global radio ??? Alexa wont allow http streams :(

          Hi, I found this thread looking for the same reason why these 3 radio stations have ceased to stream on TuneIn. I guess with Covid-19 and maybe something to do with Anna Tur being asked to leave IGR, as director. IGR owns the frequencies that Sonica and Blue Marlin use (I believe).

          This might be worth a shot… Excuse the naivety, I’ve only used Sonos a couple of times, but it streams via Wifi, so this may work.

          I use Chromecasts, so I was a bit miffed when I saw they’d gone. Although, there are dozens of other similar and great stations for Ibiza on TuneIn. Search ‘Ibiza’ in TuneIn and save a few after listening, or Google ‘Ibiza radio stations’ to add. For example ‘OpenLab’ is a great one, as is ‘Ibiza Live Radio’.

          Download ‘VLC Media Player’ or ‘LocalCast’ (other similar media/network players available). 

          For VLC, copy the first IP > go to ‘stream’ in the menu > paste the IP in > and voila. You can then save it and make a playlist. Repeat for the other 2, adding to that playlist.

          Ibiza Sonica - http://94.75.227.133:8136 

          Ibiza Global Radio - http://37.59.254.24:8024

          Blue Marlin - http://94.75.227.133:8635

          From here, you should be able to choose your network player of choice to stream to… Sonos/Chromecast. 

          Apologies if this isn’t possible with Sonos =)
