I'm desperate. Any help very much appreciated. If anyone reads this who uses the UK ISP Plus.net (famous for their bandwidth shaping techniques) I'd be very, very appreciative if they'd select a few stations from the BBC App (install from App Gallery) and let me know if they play every time reliably.
I receive a mixture of "No item found in playlist", buffering stopping at 10%, no sound, and les than half the time a correctly playing radio station. Background to this request: Plus.net bandwidth shaping seem to be OK for the mass of users but users of less popular services (like streaming BBC Radio to a Squeezebox) can fall foul of their bandwidth shaping hardware. I've had problems with this before with the iPlayer plugin. In the end I had to install a program (Wireshark) that displayed the streaming packet data so I could prove to Plusnet that it was their shaping that destroyed the stream. To their credit they then sorted out the problem within 3 days. For me BBC Radio screws up far too often (in the scheme of things) and it is always very time consuming to figure out whether the the problem is with the BBC, Squeeze code or my ISP. I have spent, and continue to spend, far too much time attempting to keep the system running. Thanks MC -- ModelCitizen Think the third party Squeeze plugins and applets are important? Then 'vote for bug 14194' (http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=14194) so more can be made.
