Describe the bug As discussed in https://github.com/y20k/transistor/issues/389#issuecomment-1147122142, I'm unable to edit a station as Transister rejects the URL. More context quoted:

Thanks for clarifying, something weird is definitely going on. For example, I added BBC Radio 1Xtra which I adjusted to be higher quality.

The URL definitely works when I play it in other players, and it's the same otherwise, just higher quality, and the save changes buttons stays disabled.

...

I "investigated" this issue. The check function categorizes .m3u8 as a playlist and rejects it. The problem is that .m3u8 CAN be a playlist. I need to look deeper into this.

I use Transistor mainly to listen to streams provided by my own (local) server, running on a raspberry pi. When I was looking at the server's logs, I noticed a strange behavior. On start and/or stop of streaming, Transistor sends additional (unnecessary) requests to the server (and immediately closes the connections). Here are three examples from the server log:

1. Additional requests on stop:

<26.06.2022 12:37:25.547><INFO><pool-1-thread-1346> GET /stream/Musik/Pop HTTP/1.1 - 192.168.178.94

You can see the initial request at 12:37:25.547 with thread number 1346, that is stopped in the last line (same thread). And three additional request just before the "real" stream is stopped.

2. Additional requests on start:

About 1 second after the "real" stream has been started (thread 1366), the same request is send another 8 times to the server (within a few milliseconds) and all additional connects are immediately closed.

3. Additional requests on start and stop:

Hi,

It would be nice if Transistor would come with an Android screensaver that shows media info like the currently playing song.

Android's built-in Always-On-Display feature unfortunately can not be set to only enable when charging or docked. It is always enabled, even when not charging.

Screensavers on the other hand can be set to only enable when the device is charging or docked.

Regards

Hello,

I know this issue with auto-starting transistor has already been discussed and closed as wontfix. Nonetheless, I would find it very helpful, if the wiki here on GitHub would contain a working intent based solution to start transistor from various automating software programs.

I tried my very best, but could not get the intent based methods from other issues to work in Tasker. If someone, not necessarily the creator of this app, has had luck making this work, please leave a short message here for other users.

The following settings do start and bring transistor to the foreground, but does not start to playing: ACTION: org.y20k.transistor.action.SHOW_PLAYER EXTRA: PLAYBACK_STATE:true EXTRA: LAST_STATION:true PACKAGE: org.y20k.transistor CLASS: org.y20k.transistor.MainActivity TARGET: Activity
