Hello I hope this question is okay: I have set up a radio with icecast2 and ices2. Everything works. I can access it from http://radio.protestbandet.dk:8000/stream? and? http://radio.protestbandet.dk:8000 I can listen to my radio in RadioDroid on my android phone, and I can listen via https://liveonlineradio.net/horsens-garage-radio in Firefox on my computer with Ubuntu. But people on iPad/iPhone can not acces it! I get a nice mediaplayer in the browser on both pc and android, where I can start and stop the stream - but in the browser on the iPad there is no mediaplayer. On the site https://liveonlineradio.net/horsens-garage-radio it says "The station is currently offline"... But, of course, it is not. My wife did install "cutedio" internet radio app on her iPhone, and found my radio station, but it could not get access (it just keept on loading and nothing happened). So, what is the problem? Hope someone can help Best, Thomas Jensen, Denmark

my knowledge may be outdated, haven't looked into it for a while, but I think it's because macos / ios have notoriously poor to no support for ogg... https://caniuse.com/ogg-vorbis bests, Thomas Jensen:> Hello > > I hope this question is okay: > > I have set up a radio with icecast2 and ices2.
