Default station config file

[arjungm]

Can you add a default station name/number to the Config file?

Awesome project fyi, thanks.

See line 44 in contrib/config-example: autostart_station = 123456

When you run pianobar, and you select a station it says
|> Station "{station name}" ({station number})

I believe you just copy {station number} and replace 123456 in the example with that.

Is that right, @PromyLOPh?

Yes, I believe that’s what @arjungm is looking for.

I can't make this work. I've tried the station number.

eg: 51

I've tried this with quotes (single and double) etc.

I've also tried the radio name

eg: Phish Radio

I've tried this with quotes etc and i still am presented with the station list.

What is the format for this option?

[steveoh]

well using $ while playing a station produced some more information. Mainly a stationId number. Now to try and find out the quickmix id number.

I found it easiest to get from the pandora website. It would be great if the CLI would output this id somehow.

[PromyLOPh]

Unless you modified format_nowplaying_station the station id is
displayed when changing to that station: Station ().

Pianobar either shows a format string you set in the config file or the
default, which includes the station id.
