[SlimDevices: Plugins] BBC iPlayer plugin - problems with some live streams

I had the same thing last weekend (and before that) on Radio 5 Live - haven't listened today yet. Also had very occasional breaks of up to 5 seconds on Radios 2 and 4 when listening early in the morning. I put both down to problems at the BBC end as they tend to go away - but maybe not?
