Hi all.

This one is a real head-scratcher. 

I recently put all the Bayerischer Rundfunk HLS streams in my Favourites
on LMS. I chose the HLS streams because they are better quality than the
'standard' MP3 streams; for example BR Klassik streams at 192 kb/s AAC.
However, I noticed recently that they were not playing the same as when
played on the computer, either directly from the BR website, or via the
urls copied & pasted into VLC. The LMS version was going to the news at
the top of the hour, and I have just listened to the stream of Bayern 2,
to see what time was announced. At 8 pm GMT/9 pm CET the announcement
'sechzehn uhr' came up, which equates to 4 pm CET/3 pm BST. So for some
bizarre reason the streams as played via LMS are some 6 hours behind the
same streams played via the omputer.

As an example, could people try this stream on their Squeezebox devices
please?:

This is the Bayern 2 Süd webstream. The exact same stream played via LMS
and the computer shows that through LMS it is timeshifted by -6 hours.
Does anyone else get the same result?

Thanks. If anyone can explain what is going on I'd love to know. And if
so, is there a solution to get LMS to play the streams without the 6
hour 'latency'?
