Soma FM Player (v1.6)
A simple player for the streams at Soma FM.
This project is not affiliated with Soma FM, it's a personal project that happens to use their awesome service. Consider donating to Soma FM if you enjoy their service.
This project was started because of limitations with the pop-up web player for SomaFM as well as the annoying support for streams in iTunes and VLC (both of which work fine, but are too general for when I'm listening at work).
Features
- Can use Macbook media keys to start and stop the stream (thanks to https://gist.github.com/gauravk92/546311).
- App icon shows the currently playing stream.
- Station menu available in dock icon, main menu and in the media player menu in the app itself.
- Key commands for my favorite streams.
Currently listed streams
- Fluid (⌘1)
- DEF CON Radio(⌘2)
- Thistle Radio (⌘3)
- PopTron (⌘4)
- Lush (⌘5)
- The Trip (⌘6)
- Drone Zone (⌘7)
- Deep Space One (⌘8)
- Suburbs of Goa (⌘9)
- Groove Salad (⌘10)
TODO
- Get current track listing
- Do something with the media player display
- Don't pause the stream, stop it and restart it (maybe only after a certain delay...)
