[jeanwedding]

my standalone SB under the menunas a PODCAST. so I dont have to get on my laptop and listen to the "recent episodes". It is rom RBN host. "the Freedom ministry with Chis Swifter" or any other of RBN hosts?? Without going to. the RBN archives. amd have my old laptop running..... I have tried Guys for hours and nothing works. I can find it under "searchs" but I an only listen one episode at a time... If I ant to another day listn to say another episode of the sam hostt. I have to do the same". SEARCH? again Its so aggravating and time consuming esp with my bad vision. Thnks all. I so appreciate yall help SO many times.. yall have temp saved my not pulling out my Hair. LOLa

If you have the Podcast plugin, from your sb radio, go to apps->podcasts, then search your series (in this case freedom ministry):



I prefer to use the material interface, but am showing it using the default interface

Then select "More" on what you are interested in, and choose "subscribe":



This should add the episodes to your podcast feed: Home ->myapps->podcasts. Then just go there, select an episode.

Note that the episodes are listed oldest (bottom) to newest (top), so you have to manually select the "next" episode if you work from bottom to top. Example - episode 1, then 2....One way to listen to a group of episodes in the oldest to newest (in a top down order) is to use the material UI, add all to the queue, reorder, then save to a playlist. If you want I/we can give you how to do this in detail. One note (trying to not complicate/confuse) is if you make a reordered playlist, it becomes static, that is, any new episodes will appear under "postcasts" but wont be in your playlist. That's why I only create the reordered playlist on seasons that are complete.

OP is using a standalone radio without LMS.

OP is using a standalone radio without LMS.

I saw "standalone" but didn't see without LMS, mysqueezebox.com, or any other clues.

I'll delete my post if you feel it's inappropriate

<edit - I switched a radio to mysb.com, then went to my apps->podcast, and I see no search (mentioned in op's thread). It was always my understanding that you have to go to mysb.com and add a feed url then the series would appear. Maybe this is what the OP needs to do? Sorry, I don't know, I don't use mysb.com>

I'd let your post stand. It makes perfect sense.

Unfortunately radio stations have started to use more secure connections than the radio alone can handle. It’s not Logitech’s fault it’s down to the need to increase security across the internet.

The good news is that the problem is completely solved by having a local LMS server. This does not have to be on a regular computer. It can be on a small low power device (a Pi) that you tuck away somewhere and forget. It takes only a few minutes to build one and you may well find someone here ( that lives in the US) will build and ship one to you for a few $

To add a little to d6jg 's explanation, Logitech discontinued the line over 10 years ago (2012). At that time mysb.com (how you stream without the PC) also stopped development, but this community continued to develop LMS (with PC, pi, etc). Around that time, as mentioned radio stations started using secure connections more frequently. LMS was adapted, mysb.com was not.

One option (that you won't like) would be to use another device (phone, tablet, etc) and connect wired or via bluetooth (?) into the Aux input of your radio. Not very clean. The radio would become basically a powered speaker.

Building a LMS server as suggested would be the way, but right now (afaik) raspberry pi's are difficult to find, unless you pay 3x in the secondary market. Normally you could build a server only for less that $50 USD.

As Jim mentioned, if you can find one, we could walk you through it, or we could build one, but it will require a bit of setup once you receive it. I think it's just as easy to follow the directions and build one yourself.

This was the case for me as well, for years. No matter what I did, I never received email notifications from these forums. I suspect it has to do with your email provider. The email address that didn't work for me was "powered by Yahoo." I finally changed my email address for these forums to a Gmail address, and I've been receiving the notifications ever since. I should have done this much sooner. Good luck.

jeanwedding - check the spam folder of your email provider, as well as the client. Example, my email provider is AOL (used to be verizon), and I use Thunderbird as my client. Often people just check the spam folder of their client, and it was removed earlier by the provider. You might need to mark the sender as "not spam".
