# Radios User Defined .xml files (Radios content directory)

The default directory for import and export User Defined radios dialog will be "~/guayadeque/Radios" directory from Guayadeque v0.7.6 onwards. That directory will be called the "Radios content directory".

You can export/save your own User Defined radios to that directory so your radios definitions would be located inside the Guayadeque configuration directory providing a way to backup them easily together with other Guayadeque configuration files. 

Guayadeque will have some predefined User Defined radios that will be provided in that directory by default. The user can use the "Radio -> User Defined -> Import" context menu option to import them if wanted. 

# French local and national radios advice

Guayadeque updates its radios database from the Tunein database. However all the radio stations of Radio France
(France Inter, France Musique, France Culture, France Info, F.I.P, France Bleue) are no more in the Tunein database.
There seems to be some conditions to be referenced by tunein that are not admissible for national radios such as:

    allowing tunein to add advertising when it's used to listen to them
    allowing tunein to infringe the copyrights, music rights...

Radio France has not found an agreement with Tunein and since april 2024 all its stations are no more referenced.
This is explained here, in French https://mediateur.radiofrance.com/actualites/lecoute-de-radio-france-via-tunein/

There's nothing to do in Guayadeque side to correct this issue: You need to manually add these Radio Stations if you
want to hear them through Guayadeque.

## List of the RadioFrance stations provided by icecast

The RadioFrance stations provided by icecast are provided in Guayadeque by the FrenchRadioStations.xml file located in the Radios content directory.

You can open the "Radio -> User Defined -> Import" context menu option to manually import it if wanted.
