<p class="p">Simply double click a station entry. It starts with your configured audio player.</p>
<p class="p">In streamtuner2 you can configure different audio players for different audio
formats (MP3 or OGG). In the <span class="link"><a href="config_apps.html" title="Audio players">Apps</a></span> section of the
<span class="link"><a href="configuration.html" title="Settings dialog">settings dialog</a></span>, you can associate one player
with each audio file (MIME) type. Per default this is audacious, but you can use any other
media player (like VLC).</p>
<div class="note" title="Note"><div class="inner"><div class="region"><div class="contents"><p class="p">Note however that some audio players will run multiple instances and won't
allow simple station switching. In such situations it might be sensible to write
a wrapper script, or configure special commandline arguments to your favoured audio
player (e.g. "vlc --one-instance").</p></div></div></div></div>
<p class="p">It's also possible to save a station entry as .m3u or .pls file, and load this manually
in your player. You might even want to collect such .m3u files for archival / backup
purposes.</p>
