Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about VMPlayer

VMPlayer supports Shoutcast v1 and v2, Icecast (all versions), HLS (HTTP Live Streaming), and direct audio streams in MP3, AAC, OGG, and Opus formats. Hosts that run on SonicPanel, Vouscast, Zeno, Live365, or Radio.co all sit on top of Shoutcast or Icecast underneath, so pick the underlying protocol when configuring the station.

The free version supports up to 5 station presets. A premium version with unlimited presets and additional features is planned for a future release.

Yes. The player uses CSS container queries so it responds to its container width, not just the viewport. On narrow containers it switches to a portrait layout that fits comfortably on phone screens.

It checks four sources in priority order. The stream itself first (in case your automation software pushes artwork URLs through custom metadata fields), then iTunes Search API (strong indie coverage through aggregators), then Deezer (particularly strong reggae, Caribbean, Latin, and international catalog), then MusicBrainz for classical and older releases. If none has a match, the station logo shows instead.

Yes. The General tab has an iTunes Storefront dropdown covering 50+ countries. Pick the region your listeners live in so local artists get matched faster during artwork lookups.

That is fine for playback. VMPlayer plays the audio directly and runs the EQ visualizer in a CSS animation mode that does not require CORS. Real-time audio-reactive analysis is available as an opt-in for CORS-enabled streams.
