The XFCE Radio Plugin is a panel add-on that enables you to manage your v4l radio device directly from the panel, making it more convenient to use.
The first step towards installing XFCE Radio Plugin is to have XFCE 4 panel already installed. Prior to installing a new plugin, it is crucial to back-up the ~/.xfce4/ directory in case of any unexpected issues.
To proceed with the installation from sources, you need to unpack the plugin's tarball by running "$ tar xvzf plugin_name.tar.gz," cd in the top source directory, then type "#./configure && make && make install." Following the installation, the panel must be reloaded using commands like "$ killall -USR1 xfce4-panel."
After reloading, XFCE Radio Plugin should appear in the move handle right-click menu. To activate it, select it, and it will then appear in the panel. Right-click on the plugin and select "properties" to access the settings dialog box (if available).
Overall, the installation process of XFCE Radio Plugin might seem a little complex, but once it's installed, it delivers the functionality it promises perfectly.
