Open Network Stream for Internet Archive?

[GDTRFB]

Has anyone figured out how to use the "Open network stream" tool to stream music from the Internet Archive? I'm not having any luck with it. Thanks!

“Open Network Stream” needs a streaming URL, not just any webpage URL. In the absence of a supported interface, I guess the best you can do is Bluetooth, airplay or Chromecast from your phone to your WiiM.

It is called ArchiveOrg. There is a thread for it somewhere on the Lyrion Forum but I am struggling to find it.

Found it

Beta test of plugin for Archive.org - can provide access to LMA (Live Music Archive) - Lyrion : Community : Forums

I've put together a simple plugin to access collections on Archive.org. I wanted to access other collection and access to LMA is a bonus. It needs testing as Archive.org has a number of collection which vary in standard and format of submissions so success will vary. Also the archive.org...

You can usually find a "streaming URL" on the page for almost any of the Internet Archive audio content. Usually in the "download options" section. Just copy the URL for the "M3U", "MP3" or "VBR" link and paste that into the Wiim "Open Network Stream”.

That's usually for one stream, so mostly one song, though.

M3U playlist can technically be added as "Open Networ Stream" targets, but don't really work well.
