A lot of the stations I tried are stuck in "buffering" and won't play: ego fm, das ding

Other random stations from the US work fine.

App ver is 2.0, Android 7.1.1

Thank you @Dtrauma for reporting this issue.

egofm: this stream is a .pls file. Android mediaplayer doesn't seem to be parsing PLS files, so it should probably be parsed manually to extract the URL of the .mp3 stream

dasding: this seems to be a problem with AAC.

I'll look into it.

I'm trying with a different player, ExoPlayer. This seems to work fine on most formats. It can play AAC. Unfortunately it seems to have problems with HLS streams (requires a special Extractor).

[Possible solution](https://notabug.org/metadb-apps/InternetRadio/issues/20#issuecomment-7829).

This should hopefully have been fixed with the release 3.0.0. I'm closing as fixed, please reopen if you still have problems.
