I was missing the phyton curses module on SHR, just did:
opkg install python-curses

works great, thanks

For fans of the Prague Radio 1:

Radio 1, http://netshow.play.cz:8000/radio1.mp3

After installing python-curses and the other required files I start pyradio. After I select a station the program errors out to the terminal. I am running OM2009.
Traceback (most recent call last):

Installed and works great on latest SHR-U, the only thing I have with it could it possibly be re-niced or something because during playback if I try to do anything else with the phone, even through a ssh connection, the playback is distorted or stops completely.

TO vendion
Yes, I have same problem (also with quickplay), but i don't know how resolve it.

@multi I beleave if pyradio is reniced to a different priority then that should resolve the issue.

opkg install python-curses

does not work on current shr-unstable 2009-12-04

Collected errors:
* Cannot find package python-curses.

In shr reposhr is python-curses, some must be broken in your instalation.
