Aurora.js decoders doesn't seem to work on radio stations

it would be nice if I could listen to radio stations that use any of the aurora.js supported format

I think this could be related to Icecast according to this recent issue on aurora.js project: audiocogs/aurora.js#135

Did you try with another stream not based on an Icecast server (and which provides HEAD request method support)?

[sideeffffect]

I haven't tried it with non-icecast based streams.
Do you know of any that I can try?

[Afterster]

Funny thing is that I don't, all stream I know are using Icecast...
You can create a similar stream using Channel on Ampache but I think we have the same issue and don't support HEAD requests...

Handling HEAD request on channels is not that easy in fact, I can understand why Icecast doesn't support it 😁

Closing this here as it is on Icecast / Aurora.js project side.

@ph3-der-loewe over at #2223 suggests that this is a problem on ampache/aurora.js side
