<p>Radio Player Page <strong>provides dedicated, standalone player pages</strong> for your radio broadcasts on WordPress. It lets you create a full weekly radio schedule, manage your broadcasts, and present everything on pages designed for reliable playback without theme conflicts.</p>
<h4>The Power of Standalone Player Pages</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Standalone Player Pages</strong> – Each station lives on its own independent HTML page, completely bypassing your WordPress theme. This ensures <strong>zero theme conflicts, optimal performance, and one clear URL</strong> per station.</li>
<li><strong>Full Radio Scheduling</strong> – 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.</li>
<li><strong>Universal Stream Compatibility</strong> – Works seamlessly with Icecast, Shoutcast, HLS (.m3u8), DASH (.mpd), and MP3 streams. Automatic protocol detection with native iOS Safari support for HLS.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Broadcast Management</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Multi-Station Control</strong> – Manage multiple independent stations from a single WordPress installation, each with its own stream, schedule, and branding.</li>
<li><strong>Broadcast Timezone Clock</strong> – 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.</li>
<li><strong>Media Session API</strong> – Professional integration with device lock screens and media controls, displaying station art and info.</li>
<li><strong>Radio Schedule Block</strong> – Add a Gutenberg block (Block Editor) 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).</li>
<li><strong>Radio Shows List Block</strong> – Add a Gutenberg block to list all radio shows for a selected station, with optional image, extended description, and broadcast schedule.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Listener Experience</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Informed Listening</strong> – The player clearly shows <strong>what’s on air now and what’s coming next</strong>.</li>
<li><strong>Visual Customization</strong> – Choose from 8 color themes and 4 real-time audio visualizers (powered by Web Audio API) to match your station’s brand.</li>
<li><strong>Station Branding</strong> – Upload custom background images and logos for each station.</li>
<li><strong>Convenience Features</strong> – Sleep timer, responsive design, and social sharing meta tags for rich link previews.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Built for Modern Web Performance</strong><br />
The player is a self-contained application built with <strong>React 19, TypeScript, and Vite</strong>, ensuring a fast, accessible, and maintainable experience. It uses manifest-based asset loading for seamless updates.</p>
