Hi,
I manually added the radio station by pasting the following URL to the field in the Sonos app: 
http://web.sabc.co.za/digital/player/1.0/rsg/index.html
After successfully adding the radio station I received a message that the song cannot be played because it is not encoded correctly.

Can someone please get me the streaming url for the above. Not sure how to get it in Safari on a Mac.  The previous one I got from the forum does not want to work anymore.  

Seems like SABS keeps on changing the streaming URL.

Thanks

It looks like you have to enter an email address and password - see this link:

https://sabc.imonitor.live/#/

It mentions contacting their support desk to request access if you are having some difficulty.

the URL http://web.sabc.co.za/digital/player/1.0/rsg/index.html provides you different options to log a technical request - my suggestion is to request if the station provides (alternative) streaming links that can be used by Sonos

There is no way an html page link like that is going to play anything.  You need the streaming URL.

Edit - sorry, I see you have already realised that.
