I have also followed the OS X instructions blindly and have come to a
point
where they don't make any more sense. I seem to have completed Step 1
through
to part of 6 (installed lame, madplay, HTML::Parser as well as mplayer
which 
is located in /usr/local/bin and am even able to play the BBC Radio 2
stream
(mplayer -playlist
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/aod/show.../paul_jones.rpm)
via the Terminal window.

However half-way through step 6 there is reference to a file called
transcoder_proxy.pl which I just can't find in my Alien 0.97 folder
(in fact the folder contains two sub-folders "Bin" and "Plugins" and
two files "slimserver-convert.conf" and "custom-types.conf". There is
also a mplayer.sh file in the "Bin" folder. What do I do with these 
3 files and where should I copy them? Do they replace the
transcoder_proxy.pl
file referred to in the instructions? If not where do I find the
transcoder_proxy.pl file?

Strangely enough the Slimserver Web interface contains the new AlienBBC
option,
but no sound comes out through my Squeezebox 2 (although the other
Internet Radio stations and the music collection work perfect;y).

I am using Slimserver 6.0.2 and OS X 10.3.8.
