This is good news. A (windows) server indeed handles WMA transcoding for local files and it's good to know that this also works automatically for Napster. I did a quick search about WMA decoders, but didn't get any far. Also I need to read into licensing issues, maybe as with mp3 there are still licensing fees which might apply before I can support it natively. I'll be listening to BBC iPlayer between christmas and new year - maybe I'm able to reproduce your issue with start/stop! -- bluegaspode Big Screen for great Boxes available now at your AppStore: *'Squeezebox + iPad = SqueezePad ' (www.squeezepad.com) *!
