Hello.
Hello.
First of all, I ask you to forgive me for the disgusting English, I use the Google translator from the Russian language.
I installed the KDE version of the distribution kit on my computer. I really want to install the KDE "advanced radio player" widget that I am used to, and it is available for installation from the KDE shell.
After installing the widget did not work, it asked for additional libraries. I found them in the repository and installed them, and now there are no error messages in the widget settings, but the widget does not work, it cannot connect to the broadcast source. Errors are indicated in the lists of broadcast servers, constant buffering status. On the support page, the author in this case recommends installing the packages "Make sure the Gstreamer package and Gstreamer-plugins are installed", I tried to do this but failed. There are a lot of these packages in the repository, I installed a "good plugin", but there are a lot of Gstreamer packages themselves. I put about six or seven at the same time, but this did not solve the problem.
What packages do I need to install for this widget to work?
Thanks.

It seems that the widgets have blocked Internet access, the weather widget installed in the system does not find any city.

Re: KDE widget, find missing Gstreamer libraries.
In order to get the Advanced Radio Player widget working on MXLinux 21 I had to add 'sudo apt-get install libqt5multimedia5-plugins qml-module-qtquick-xmllistmodel' after running all the updates. Then log out or do a restart and it should display correctly and find and play stations. I got the solution directly from the creator of the widget. He also mentioned gstreamer plugins 'good and bad' should be installed but I already had those. Hope this works for you. If it does, spread the word.

I had many problems using that widget so I created a m3u playlist with radio stations (find stream urls on https://www.radio-browser.info)
If I open it in Audacious with "minimize to tray" enabled, it's similar to the mentioned widget.
It also works in VLC or any other decent player.

Re: KDE widget, find missing Gstreamer libraries.
When I ran 'sudo apt-get install libqt5multimedia5-plugins qml-module-qtquick-xmllistmodel' it seems to have totally fixed 'Advanced Radio Player' widget. The second part was for diplaying main page of plasmoid settings correctly so it also fixed another widget I enjoy called 'Weather Widget 2'. Now I'm assuming it will make most plasmoids work correctly.
