I want to love this. I leave these stations on in the background anyway and being able to change them like a radio station is a desirable feature.
It's missing 2 key features that will prevent me from using it and recommending it to everyone I know:
1) No volume control. You could argue this is more a failure of my browser, but it's easier if you just add a volume control. Bonus points if up/down arrows controls work to control it. Really, all the youtube keyboard controls would be helpful here.
2) YouTube sometimes detects my bitrate incorrectly and I need to manually set it to highest. I don't know why this happens, but it does. Let me change that somehow on your site. Even if I have to opt-in to seeing a full youtube player to set it, that's ok.
I would also like a convenient way to get this on my TV. I wonder which android TV devices can install PWAs now.
- icelancer 6y agoAgree to #1 for sure (I use the Force HD chrome plugin for #2). Please add a volume control button!
- ayyy 6y agoIt never occurred to me to fix that with an extension, good tip.
- glalonde 6y agohave to appreciate the irony in worrying about the bitrate of simulated lo-fi crackling

- eric_khun 6y agoLooks like a Pull request for the volume control was created[1]. Hopefully the author will merge it soon. Internet is awesome [1] https://github.com/maxence-charriere/lofimusic/pull/3 https://github.com/maxence-charriere/lofimusic/pull/3
- reportgunner 6y agoCheck out https://radioparadise.com https://radioparadise.com It has volume control, you can skip songs, there are 4 different channels (Main, Rock, Mellow, Eclectic) and you can even make your own channel of songs that you rated 7 out of 10 or more. No ads, purely listener supported. It has a phone app too where you can set bitrate per Wifi/Mobile data and you can also set up caching to listen when you're offline or during tunnels when travelling.
