This wiki page will briefly go through the command you need for adding custom radio stations, as well as other details. # Default Stations List If you are looking for the original `.txt` file containing all default stations that are available from the start, you can find it at `<Rust DS root folder>\RustDedicated_Data\StreamingAssets\RadioList.txt`. | In-game Station Name | URL | |:------------------------------------:|:----------------------------------------------------- | | Rust Radio | rustradio.facepunch.com | | Chippy Radio | chippyradio.facepunch.com | | Sonis Radio | sonisradio.facepunch.com | | Triple J | http://live-radio01.mediahubaustralia.com/2TJW/mp3/ | | BBC Radio One | http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_radio_one | | BBC Radio Two | http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_radio_two | | BBC Radio Three | http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_radio_three | | BBC Radio Four | http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_radio_fourfm | | BBC Radio 1xtra | http://stream.live.vc.bbcmedia.co.uk/bbc_1xtra | | NPR | https://npr-ice.streamguys1.com/live.mp3 | | Magic Oldies Florida | http://uk4.internet-radio.com:8004/ | | Smooth Jazz Florida | http://us4.internet-radio.com:8266/ | | Salsa Radio | http://radio.domiplay.net:2002/; | | Radio Central | http://philae.shoutca.st:8459/stream | | J Pop Project Radio - Global Edition | http://bluford.torontocast.com:8085/stream | | Heart FM | http://media-ice.musicradio.com/HeartLondonMP3 | | KEXP | http://live-mp3-128.kexp.org/ | | Kool London | http://uk1-pn.webcast-server.net:8698/ | | Sensimedia | http://equinox.shoutca.st:9878 | | WEFUNK | http://s-00.wefunkradio.com:81/wefunk64.mp3 | #Adding Stations As a server owner, you can add your own station using the server console (or even in-game) using this command: `BoomBox.ServerUrlList “<In-game Station Name>,<URL>”` ⤶ So for example: `BoomBox.ServerUrlList “Test Station,www.teststation.com”` So for example: `BoomBox.ServerUrlList “Test Station,www.teststation.com”` ⤶ Keep in mind that URL must be a direct link to the audio stream. `.M3U`, `.MP3` or any other format. (sometimes it's not seen in the link if their website was set up this way) If your browser automatically opens up the built-in audio players then this might be the correct link. ⤶ # DMCA We recommend content creators turn off this feature (set Internet Audio Streams to Off in the Options menu) in order to not trigger any copyright/DCMA strikes. # Security Concerns It is not recommended to add station URLs that you don't trust: there is no general rule that indicated which station might be problematic, but always be careful with suggestions to add player-hosted stations. Rust establishes a direct connection with the station URL and there is nothing between the client (you) and station server - this opens up a few exploit possibilities, including being able to gather IP addresses of players who get into the range of a working boombox. This is not exactly anyhow harmful besides of getting IP exposed, but might be concerning for players.

This is not exactly harmful besides of getting IP exposed, but might get players concerned. Keep in mind that this involves only stations that players host themselves - these might be a problem only when they have a full control over it and can have their own interests when hosting the radio URL. This does not anyhow affect whitelisted radio stations or probably many others that you might find in the internet.
