I'm looking for a way to (simply) play BBC Radio 4 and other BBC stations on my desktop machine. I used to use radiotray but updating to xubuntu 14.04 seems to have broken that completely (it was always a *bit* flakey).
I don't want a full blown music player really, though one that's easy to configure to play BBC would be OK.
I *definitely* don't want a list of thousands of stations to select from which rarely includes BBC anyway, I just want to be able to enter a BBC radio URL and hear the radio.
I have clementine installed but I can't see how to get that to play URLs, it looks like it should but seems to be broken when you try it. Like so many other players I've found.
Searching for Clementine and radio results in this (among others of course) - https://github.com/clementine-player/Clementine/issues/3893
