first off thanks again Dr. O...
build 1.0.12.5586 May 2020
(apologies if a current version has addressed this situation)
usually I would dissect an m3u8 file radio stream and get the
"pure" url.
Windows 10 plays ok with VLC or with Firefox (+ an extension)
Radio audio stream m3u8
The previous url.....
....worked fine for a couple of years.
http://ais-sa1.streamon.fm/7869_96k.aac
but as they have been having problems with the stream they changed to below.
Current url (VLC or Firefox)
https://ais-sa1.streamon.fm:443/7869_96k.aac/playlist.m3u8
as you may surmise (dissecting the m3u8 file and viewing the stream with Firefox "Inspect" + "Network" ) it is loading chunks of
the stream one at a time... and pushing a new m3u8 file for the next .acc "chunk".
Apologies if this has been asked or discussed ( i did do a search ).
thanks again.

It's a dash/hls based stream which isn't something that wacup currently supports. For now I only handle basic http streams like you were previously using. As for still using 1.0.12.5586 I assume you've got your reasons for doing so but that's essentially so far behind I can't support it.

I use https://github.com/massej/RadioHLSConverter.backend.serverless as a proxy.
Basically it convert the m3u8 (HLS radio stream) to the basic http streams and allow WACUP to work with the new radio format while keeping the audio quality!
