It's a lot a of work if server has to save the audio stream as there
issues about starting/stopping streams (e.g. different stream
types/different headers/ time estimation or should all streams be
transcoded) and also ensuring cross platform.  A few years ago, I worked
out it would be easy to do "time shift" using VLC to play a stream -
however there is still a lot of work handling UI (i.e. SB3 and Web UI to
mapping FFW/REW to VLC) and getting exact time to FFW / REW. Then it was
complicated by an additional UI of Touch/Radio.
