Radio Player Page

Description

Radio Player Page provides dedicated, standalone player pages for your radio broadcasts on WordPress. It lets you create a full weekly radio schedule, manage your broadcasts, and present everything on pages that guarantee reliable, theme-independent listening.

The Power of Player Pages

• Independent Player Pages – Each station lives on its own independent HTML page, completely bypassing your WordPress theme. This ensures zero theme conflicts, optimal performance, and one clear URL per radio station.
• Full Radio Scheduling – Create a weekly lineup with named radio shows and optional logos. The player intelligently displays the current and next radio show, with timezone-aware calculations and overlap prevention.
• Universal Stream Compatibility – Works seamlessly with Icecast, Shoutcast, HLS (.m3u8), DASH (.mpd), and MP3 streams. Automatic protocol detection with native iOS Safari support for HLS.

Broadcast Management

• Multi-Station Control – Manage multiple independent stations from a single WordPress installation, each with its own stream, schedule, and branding.
• Emission Timezone Clock – Keep a global audience informed. When your station’s timezone differs from the listener’s, a discreet clock shows the station’s local time and the offset.
• Media Session API – Professional integration with device lock screens and media controls, displaying station art and info.
• Radio Schedule Block – Add a Block to any post or page to display the full weekly radio schedule for a selected station. Design is controlled by the editor and theme (Block Supports, theme.json).
• Radio Shows List Block – Add a Block to list all radio shows for a selected station, with optional image, extended description, and broadcast schedule.

Listener Experience

• Informed Listening – The player clearly shows what’s on air now and what’s coming next.
• Visual Customization – Choose from 8 color themes and 4 real-time audio visualizers (powered by Web Audio API) to match your station’s brand.
• Station Branding – Upload custom background images and logos for each radio station.
• Convenience Features – Sleep timer, responsive design, and social sharing meta tags for rich link previews.

Built for Modern Web Performance
The player is a self-contained application built with React 19, TypeScript, and Vite, ensuring a fast, accessible, and maintainable experience. It uses manifest-based asset loading for seamless updates.
