This my 'quick and dirty' method. Only works for HLS and you may have to have BPA's PlayHLS plugin installed for it to work. 1) Ascertain the (v)pid of the desired programme from the web browser. 2) Modify the following text string with the new pid. "http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/5/redir/version/2.0/vpid/b08n22tq/mediaset/audio-syndication/proto/http"; 3) Cut and paste the new url into the "Tune in URL" box 4) Press play and away you go. No images or programme info but there should be sound!
