BBC radio station list sorting

[MikeQ]

Hi there, would it be possible to rearrange the station list into something more logical and relevant. Current list makes no sense at all. Thanks.

I'd suggest using the BBC Sounds app on your phone and sending the audio to your WiiM via Chromecast
OR
Install Lyrion somewhere on your network and use the excellent BBC Sounds plugin for it

Thanks, but surely it's not beyond the wit of the geniuses at Wiim to simply make the list sortable.

You are right of course but also IIRC the streams that the WHA links to are the low quality International versions. If you are in UK the BBC Sounds app versions both official and from Lyrion are the higher quality ones.

Indeed, but tbh I wouldn’t see it as a high priority on the development roadmap. They’ve still got a non-bbc station on that list that was pointed out to them a good while ago and it’s still there.

And the list of regional/local stations is an incomplete and ecelectic collection

Especially, as they are only local if you live in UK

One person's local is another person's far flung and exotic lol
