Playlist issue with live url-s

[alanmilinovic]

First of all amazing work you are doing. I feel in love with MA. I just have one minute issue.

I’m experiencing an issue with playlists in Music Assistant (version 2.7.6).
I can manually add an internet radio station using its direct stream URL and it plays without any problem. However, when I try to add that same station to a playlist, it does not work. Additionally, when I import an external playlist (for example an M3U file), the playlist is always empty.
In the logs I see warnings stating that the URL is not valid, even though the stream itself plays correctly when added manually.

2026-02-13 23:14:57.963 WARNING (MainThread) [music_assistant.filesystem_local] Could not parse https://streams.radio.co/sdc9cfaf77/listen to track: Invalid path/uri

Is this expected behavior? Is there a limitation regarding live streams when they are used inside playlists?
Thanks in advance.

Any comment?

Radio stations can only be added to a built in playlist (not local filesystem provider)

Ok, thanks for reply.
