Jules, Thanks for your detailed reply (and thanks, in advance of my actually getting it up and running, for AlienBBC. I suspect that there might be a real shift in perception going on with the Squeezebox: from a device for playing one's own music collection - which is great in itself - to being at last a 'real' interface to internet radio. I hope that can include the BBC; and I hope that in time as much as legally possible of the mechanisms needed to support Squeezebox access to the BBC streams can be rolled into the standard distribution of SlimServer.)
I'm sure you're right that it wouldn't be a good use of time to back-port the parser fixes to 0.12 - but revising the labelling of the latest versions, which is currently pretty scary, would seem reasonable. I agree you never know with the BBC - and they've been very resistant to offering the streams in any other format, and are obviously very concerned to avoid offering them in a 'capturable' format (<cough>AudioHijack</cough>). But then again, you never know with the BBC - see for example their plans for the Creative Archive: <http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressreleases/stories/2004/05_may/26/creat ive_archive.shtml> Ben Rubinstein | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cognitive Applications Ltd | Phone: +44 (0)1273-821600 http://www.cogapp.com | Fax : +44 (0)1273-728866 _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
