I cannot play iHeart stream from web site or apps but I can play many stations (but not all) using URL directly so the main purpose of the plugin is providing simple access. Shoutcast and possibly pls are usually there for legacy internet radio devices who do not support HLS. I'd expect HLS is the basis for the iHeart closed future. The additional metdata info on EXTINF lines are iHeart specific. I think the gaps in m3u8 playback are there to discourage the use of non iHeart players such as ffmpeg as I get the same gaps with VLC with the "vanilla" m3u8 URL If there was demand/need I might see oif the BBCiPlayer HLS can be modified to play iHeart streams but at the moment with only 11 downloads - I doubt it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108466
