There's no docs other than the source code.

MythMusic is getting a 404 Resource Not Found error when trying to 
connect to the stream url at http://aol.streams.bassdrive.com:8010. My 
guess would be that we aren't handling the port number properly 
somewhere I think all the examples I've tried so far all use the default 
port 80. I'll try to take a look when I have more time this weekend.

If you want to start digging starting the frontend with -v 
playback,file,network will help to debug the problem.
