Tuning In

One of the most immersive features of Euro Truck Simulator 2 is the in-game radio. While the game provides default stations, you can easily add custom URL streams to listen to your preferred music or news while hauling cargo across Europe.

​
1. Locating the Stream File

Custom radio streams are managed individually on each player’s computer. The server cannot force a specific radio station on all participants.
  1. On your PC, navigate to: Documents/Euro Truck Simulator 2/
  2. Locate the file named live_streams.sii.
  3. Open it with a text editor like Notepad.

​
2. Formatting the Stream

Add a new entry to the stream_data list. The structure must follow this exact syntax: 
stream_data[0]: "URL|NAME|GENRE|LANGUAGE|BITRATE"
Example: stream_data[322]: "http://stream.freakhosting.com/radio.mp3|FREAKHOSTING FM|Gaming|English|128"

​
Sharing with your Convoy

Since radio streams are client-side, we recommend sharing your edited live_streams.sii file with your friends or community members. This ensures everyone in your convoy is listening to the same station simultaneously.
