If you're talking about the SailWave app, I just made a small imgur album tutorial. Hope you don't mind I used a pony radio XD

I'm the developer of SailWave.

Currently, the only way to add a new stream is:

  1. Copy the stream's URL (from a website, ...)
  2. In SailWave app use the PulleyMenu to open the "Add Station"-Dialog
  3. Give it a name and paste the URL from step 1 into the URL field
  4. Accept the dialog
  5. (based on your settings the stream gets checked and if it is valid, it gets added to the list)
  6. Play the stream by tapping on it in the list view

It is a planned feature to add a stream database directly to the app, so you don't have to search and copy&paste a URL into the app. But due to lack of time/motivation*, I haven't done this till now.


*) I don't use this app very much since I bought a Squeezebox. So it is not my highest priority to add more features to this app :)

The database thing was/is needed.

@ApB - yeah, you are absolutely right :) I even have a database I could use, but I didn't have the right idea how to implement it in a good way yet (in combination with user-defined stations, updates, etc).

You mean UI wise. It doesn't have to be fancy. Pulley>Select station>bring up menu with country/genre/random/whatever else and on that page have a manual add station or search pulley menu. The main page should have your favorites and it will be ok i think.
