The BBCiPlayer plugin is a 3rd party plugin and so is not part of LMS
per se and shoul;d ne be trreated as part fo LMS asd it has to deal with
BBC foibles.

The BBC WMA URLs are fixed and reused on a 7 day cycle  (see how to make
a link here http://beebotron.org/beebobodgewma.php  ) but AAC URLs are
unique per program and so go out of date.
The plugin has a little known and a bit hard to use "filter" ability
which can be used to produce a matching list of programs. I don't think
this could eaily be made part of standard LMS.
