Description Thomas Dreibholz 2025-07-08 12:37:19 UTC 
Trying go get an HTTPS radio stream playing in Strawberry Music Player (audio/strawberry) results in:

------
No URI handler implemented for "https".

../gst/playback/gsturisourcebin.c(1774): gen_source_element (): /GstPlayBin3:pipeline-1-pipeline/GstURIDecodeBin3:uridecodebin3/GstURISourceBin:urisourcebin0
n
------

In addition to MP3/AAC playing, HTTPS radio streaming is probably the most common use case of a music player, which should work out-of-the-box. At least, Strawberry should provide a useful error message to suggest which plug-in to install.

After some debugging, I found the solution: gstreamer1-plugins-soup, i.e.:
sudo pkg install -y gstreamer1-plugins-soup
fixes the issue.

I suggest to add gstreamer1-plugins-soup as dependency of the Strawberry port, to just support radio stream playing out-of-the box.

I hit this too when trying out Strawberry. Can we make sure this is shipped with functional internet streaming radio support?
