Michael,

Thanks for your help.  My players are Squeezebox Touchs, and I am using
LMS.  My intermittent problem with Tidal experienced during the last two
days has, for the moment, gone away.  I did the following two things. 
First,

1a) From LMS -> Open Web Control -> Settings -> Player -> Audio, I
changed Streaming Method from Direct Streaming to Proxied Streaming
1b) From LMS -> Open Web Control -> Settings -> Advanced -> Network, I
increased Radio Station Buffer Seconds from 3 to 30.

When I tried 1a and 1b separately, I still had the problem with
intermittent drop-outs.  But then I tried them together, and the
drop-outs seemed to go away.  (After each change, I rebooted the
machined running LMS, re-started LMS, and power cycled the SBT, just to
make sure that changes were "sticking.")

Next, I wanted to verify that (1a + 1b) were actually responsible for
fixing things.  After all, with intermittent problems it can be hard to
tell if your recent changes are actually the solution, or if something
else causing the intermittent problem has secretly gone away.  So the
next thing I did was,

2a) Change from Proxied Streaming back to Direct Streaming
2b) Change Radio Station Buffer Seconds from 30 back to 3.

To my surprise, Tidal is still working without drop-outs, even after (2a
+ 2b), even though this returns the settings to their original state. 
What do you make of all this?  Do you think that changes (1a + 1b)
triggered something somewhere that actually fixed the problem?  Or do
you think that an intermittent problem at Tidal, or in my Internet
connection, just happened to go away while I was doing these
experiments?  Intermittent problems can be a challenge.

Thanks again.
