Please note our update on RadioDNS here.
As part of being a member of Radioplayer, we make it easy for your station to be discoverable in hybrid radio devices, such as in car. We do this two ways. Firstly we work closely with car companies and manufacturers of hybrid radio equipment by helping them with metadata and with refining the user experience for listeners using those devices. Secondly we support open standards such as RadioDNS.
Our RadioDNS support provides the ability for your station to be part of RadioDNS with no effort from you. It just works. We securely publish your station name, and logos plus technical broadcast data (called bearers which we source externally) via the RadioEPG specification to trusted parties with whom we have an agreement. We don't aggregate your metadata to organisations we don't know.

Opting in
We automatically opt all new stations in, which means there's nothing for you to do. It can take up to three months for your station to be accepted by RadioDNS so bear with us.
Opting out
We don't recommend opting out if you have no alternative RadioDNS service as it makes it hard for radio listeners to find your broadcasts on hybrid radios. However if you are either needing public RadioDNS services or wish to do more than RadioEPG and wish to go it alone, then we will need to take you out of our service. To do this, open a support ticket using the links on the right and state the RPUID of the station(s) to remove. Once we've completed the task, please get in touch with the RadioDNS team who will take you through the next steps.
