The method WinampController.appendToPlayList(String) checks if the given file really exists. This is wrong as the given String could as well contain just a URL pointing to a stream (eg. http://server:8888\).
I removed the check and recompiled the jar, it works perfectly now as well with internet radio URL's. Please remove this check in a next official version if there will be any in the future.
Wow. I had the same problem, and fixed it in the same way. I'm ready to push the changes to SF, but I am not authorized, I have contacted the owner of this project if I can be added as a contributor so I can push the changes... but I don't know when that will happen.
I'll update you as soon as I've pushed it.
I'm glad I'm not the only one affected by this... it probably means that other people around will also benefit from this fix.
