For some unknown reason, the BBC have made some broadcasted programs only available as podcasts not available as HDS, DASH or HLS even though full URLs for DASH and HLS have been provided in the "Listen Again" XML feed. . The "Life Scientiific" is one of the few, other examples include "Fighting talk " on 5live or when being broadcast "The infinite Monkey cage". The LMS BBCiPlayer plugin in 1.6.3 finds the podcast automagically so user doesn't notice the problem except by looking at audio format (mp3 vs aac). To make a fix to the BBCRadio Applet to automate finding podcasts for such programs would take too much effort. I suggest just use the Mysqueezebox Podcast App and add the BBC podcast URL http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/opml/bbc_podcast_opml.opml >From the BBC "deprecated" note in the "6" URLs - it is likely the BBCRadioApplet has a limited life and if you really want BBCiplayer functionality you should consider implementing a small LMS server (e.g. Raspberry Pi with Picore) but even the BBCiPlayer plugin's lifespan is not guaranteed. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=103293 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
