I can confirm that this works.

I took the following URL:

http://slimserver:9000/plugins/LastFM/index.html?lastfm=playlfm&lastfmp1=user%2Frobinbowes%2Floved&player=00%3A04%3A20%3A06%3A3e%3A20

Then found the following station on LastFM:

lastfm://user/angeltech/personal

I replaced user%2Frobinbowes%2Floved with user%2Fangeltech%2Fpersonal to
give this URL:

http://slimserver:9000/plugins/LastFM/index.html?lastfm=playlfm&lastfmp1=user%2Fangeltech%2Fpersonal&player=00%3A04%3A20%3A06%3A3e%3A20

I opened this in Firefox and the angeltech personal station is now
playing on my SB!

I must put together a simple script that does this automatically.

R.
