.pls links not ending in .pls are not playable

I can't manually add radios with links containing anything after the file extension, such as this one: http://www.radiofeeds.net/playlists/bauerflash.pls?station=absolute80shigh-aac

The app doesn't recognise the stream, even though every other radio app I use does.

  Hello, 

  We have checked the station URL http://www.radiofeeds.net/playlists/bauerflash.pls?station=absolute80shigh-aac, and we managed to manually add it in Audials. 

   

  To help you further, please contact the support team at suppor@audials.com

   

  Thank you!

  Have a nice day!

  Audials doesn’t seem to accept .pls URLs that include query parameters after the file extension, like ?station=absolute80shigh-aac. Other radio apps handle these streams just fine. It would be great if Audials could update the parser to ignore extra parameters after .pls so more stations can be added easily.

  Yep, I second Waltergreen on this. I faced the same issue. But i closed the process and retired and it worked a few times. But it is not 100% successful.

  The ?station= part is probably causing it to reject the link even though the stream itself is valid. Other radio apps handle this fine because they parse the full URL instead of relying on the extension alone. If the app doesn’t offer an option to bypass validation, you might need to reach out to the developer or check whether there’s a beta version or update that fixes stream detection for URLs with parameters.golf hit
