	<title>MyOggRadio</title>

	<p><link href="http://ehm.homelinux.org/MyOggRadio/">MyOggRadio</link> is an open
        source internet radio directory project. Since it provides its station list as
	JSON it's very well supported.</p>

        <p>To help with populating the directory further,
	streamtuner2 provides an option to share radion station links.
	Use <guiseq><gui>Station</gui> <gui>Extensions</gui>
	<gui>Share on MyOggRadio...</gui></guiseq> menu entry to upload the currently
	selected radio (e.g. from your favourite bookmarks).</p>

        <p>The personal section is empty per default. You need to specify an user account
	in the settings dialog, and actually bookmark stations in the MyOggRadio web site.
	Shared entries aren't automatically in the <gui style="button">personal</gui> list.</p>

	<note style="tip"><p>MyOggRadio also has a neat cross-platform player:

    <title><code>Login settings</code></title>
    <p>If you want to upload station infos to MyOggRadio, you need an account there.
    Registration is free and doesn't require personal information nor email address.
    Specify it as <input>username:</input> separated with a : colon in this field.</p>
    <note style="advanced">
      <p>Alternatively you can store your account settings in the central
      <file>~/.netrc</file> config file. Or in <file>~/.config/netc</file> even.</p>
      <p>Your entry for MyOggRadio should follow the common format:</p>
<code>
machine myoggradio.org
    login usr123
    password pw123
</code>
      <p>Which is useful because it's a standard format, and prevents
      leaking authorization data into per-application config stores.
      Note that a user:pw setting in streamtuner takes precedence
      though.</p>

    <title><code>stream URL format</code></title>
    <p>When uploading stations, the streaming URL can be converted into RAW format. You
    can however leave it as .PLS link file.</p>
