ffmpeg does not support all types of HLS streams.  Furthermore it also
seems to have problem with ID3 metadata in the stream.  To give more
help I need the stream URL.

The PlayHLS plugin has NOTHING to do with BBCiPlayer.  So BBCiPlayer
working provides no indication about PlayHLS functioning.   The
BBCiPlayer provides a hack way, not using ffmpeg,  of playing one 1 very
small subset of HLS streams (out of possible 5 main types) - and it
needs to be very similar to BBXC  - so BBCiPlayer is not a good starting
point.

I am working on a "native" HLS player which is all in Perl and Plugin
based.  However I have a problem with HLS URLs which use HTTPS  with TLS
v1.2 - so this indicates not only are there multiple HLS variations to
support then there are an additional layer of  HTTPS issues about which
version of SSL/TLS is in use.

In summary - without a station URL - no help.
