Using BBC iPlayer plugin, I set some programs as favourites, such as:
Home > BBC iPlayer > BBC 6 Music > 6 Music Recommends
I then went to Favourites > 6 Music Recommends, and tried to play the
favourite. This froze SBS for several minutes, and eventually started playing
music from my local music library.
Looking at my log, it seems that the attempt to play the favourite kicked off a
scan:

and then started to play all music in the whole of my library (playlist limited
to 500 songs though).
I tried playing "6 Music Recommends" directly from within the iPlayer menu, and
it doesn't play, but doesn't have the unexpected side effects.
Are iPlayer streams meant to be able to cope with being set as favourites? It
seemed to work with another play again stream (eg. not a live broadcast):
Home > BBC iPlayer > BBC 6 Music > BBC Introducing with Tom
Robinson, and choose "01:00 Today" as a favourite.
However, if you click into a program (in Web UI), there isn't a "Set as
favourite" option (you have to do it from the level above).
This does seem to play from favourites, but I'm a bit hesitant to set
favourites if it can have the side effect mentioned above if the stream/url
isn't right.
