nrsc5 (HD FM) radio player - web based, mobile friendly

Screengrab Video: https://evuraan.info/evuraan/stuff/yellowShoes_with_Webamp_Milkshake.mp4

If you have an SDR Dongle that can receive NRSC-5 digital radio stations, you can use yellowShoes as the playback and control UI (User-interface). Navigate to your yellowShoes instance from a decent web browser, and you're good to go!

• You must have nrsc5 compiled and installed. The nrsc5 binary must be in your PATH.
• Optional Requirement: If you want mp3 playback (or have IOS devices), you will need lame encoder binary in your PATH. See IOS Playback section.

Equalizer and a Music Visualizer.

This feature can be enabled from Settings.

Album art has been enabled as an experimental feature. Album Art tiles works on mobile device lock screens and desktop browsers.

Enabling this option will make your backend initiate network traffic to search and find cover/album art images. The results we find may be inaccurate or even inappropriate.

Builds that support Album Art are kept here.

You must launch yellowShoes with -enableAlbumArt to enable album art.

$ ./yellowShoes -enableAlbumArt

Then navigate to Settings -> Cover Art and enable.

• Setup nrsc5

• Download the yellowShoes binary suitable for your Operating System and Platform from bin folder of the yellowShoes_with_Webamp_Milkdrop branch.

• Launch the binary you downloaded:

$ ./yellowShoes -enableAlbumArt

You can run yellowShoes inside a Docker container. See the Docker section.

Below example is how I pegged yellowShoes behind Apache:

<Location /hdFm/>
ProxyPass  http:https://192.168.1.14:8113/
ProxyPassReverse http:https://192.168.1.14:8113/
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
Options -Indexes
</Location>

This would allow proto:https://myapp.dev/hdFm/main externally.
