A new version of AlienBBC is available for beta testing. This beta is
only available for 7.3.x and 7.4.  

There is a new feature of displaying the iPlayer program "pictures" on
WebUI Now Playing and on Squeezeplay/Controller menus and Now Playing. 
Please give feedback on the "pictures" functionality on main AlienBBC
menu on Squeezeplay     

A number of bug fixes are also included and they are detailed below. 
Beta testing by users is needed to ensure the changes have not broken
RealAudio support for BBC or other stations.

Installation.
1. Add this repository to Extension Downloader 
http://alienbbc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/testrepo.xml
2. A new entry will appear offering AlienBBC upgrade to 2.4a5test-7.3. 
Select and click Apply.
3. Restart SC

After restart, because this is a beta test there will be a new AlienBBC
upgrade offer (e.g. 2.4a5ttest-7.3 to 2.4a4-7.3) Ignore this upgrade
notice. *Do not upgrade*

The bug fixes include.
* "No program" in schedule menu
* Missing "other episodes" of programs
* On Linus & OSX, programs stop after 3h20 mins of listening.
* Program name display on SB rather than just "BBC Radio ?
(international)"
* World Service Listen Again working again.

When the BBC gets busy, it can be slow to supply web pages.  If
AlienBBC times out waiting for an iPlayer web page a "No programs" menu
may appear.  This "No programs" menu will be cached so that there is no
point repeating the request.  Wait for at least 5 mins for cache entry
to expire.  If this happens often increase the Radio Station Timeout to
something like 10 or 15 secs.
