Site support request - UK Radioplayer (400+ stations)

[fvisagie]

• I've verified and I assure that I'm running youtube-dl 2018.05.01
• At least skimmed through the README, most notably the FAQ and BUGS sections
• Searched the bugtracker for similar issues including closed ones
• Checked that provided video/audio/playlist URLs (if any) are alive and playable in a browser
• Site support request (request for adding support for a new site)

If the purpose of this issue is a bug report, site support request or you are not completely sure provide the full verbose output as follows:

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

Please provide support for UK Radioplayer-based radio stations.

Stations can be accessed either from http://www.radioplayer.co.uk, or from their respective home pages (e.g. https://www.energyfm.net).

The Radioplayer page of each station seems to identify stream URLs in var audioArray as follows:

https://www.energyfm.net/radioplayer:

var audioArray = [
	{
		audioType: 'http',
		audioUrl: 'http://91.121.78.191:8096/;stream.mp3'
	}];

http://thisiselectric.co.uk/radioplayer (the last one here seems unavailable currently):

var audioArray = [
	{
		audioType: 'http',
		audioUrl: 'http://mp3streaming.planetwideradio.com:9185/thisiselectric128'
	},	{
		audioType: 'aac',
		audioUrl: 'http://mp3streaming.planetwideradio.com:9185/thisiselectric48'
	}];

Thank you,
François
