Things were changing dynamically as I was typing out problems.

I was using these versions before
http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?103435-BBCiPlayer-Plugins-an-alternative-quick-fix-guide&highlight=iplayer
which stopped working with Listen Again on iPlayer. 
I installed your beta V1.5.2 (a couple of LMS resets to complete both
iPlayer and iPlayer Extras installations) and listen again worked on
every station except 6 music. After changing one setting (Show On Air
Text wasn't checked by default) 6 music listen again started working
over an hour and a half later. 

I don't think checking the 2Show On Air Text" setting caused it to work,
I think it was a cache issue? I wouldn't say clicking that one Livetext
box would make the settings "in a mess" though?

Streaming preferences on V1.5.2 are default HLS>MP3>FlashAAC>FlashMP3
for both live and listen again. "Allow Transcoding" is checked by
default. 

There is only one tickbox in iPlayer Extras V1.9.5 - it says "Select if
you do not want DASH streams". It is unchecked by default.

I don't have any idea how to make it use DASH?

With those default settings (text checkbox aside) the streams come out
on LMS interface as: 

Listen again streams at 128kbps CBR AAC on V1.9.5 iPlayer Extras
Listen Again streams at 128kbps CBR AAC LC on V1.5.2 iPlayer. 
Live streams at 339kbps CBR AAC LC on V1.5.2 iPlayer.

(if I look on Squeeze Commander it also says "converted to 705kbps
FLAC", which presumably is the effect of the "allow transcoding"
tickbox).

The URL for 6 music is
iplayer://live?hls=http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/sbr_high/ak/bbc_6music.m3u8&icon=http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/imda/logos/radio6_logomobile1-1.png&radiovis=dab/ce1/ce15/c22b/0
