I'll try to help.

On the web interface, go to 'settings', and select the 'plugins' tab. 
Go to the bottom.  You may need to tick a box saying something like
'allow 3rd party plugins', and press Apply.

At the very bottom you should have a section called 'Additional
Repositories'

Add a line containing 

Code:
--------------------
    
  http://bpaplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo-playhls.xml
  
--------------------

and Press Apply.

Near the bottom you should now have a section called "PlayHLS Plugin
repo".  Tick the box, Apply, and restart LMS.

LMS should now be able to play the new format streams.  Try adding a
favourite at 

Code:
--------------------
    
  
http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/high/ak/bbc_radio_one.m3u8
  
--------------------

It should now play.  Not high quality, but at least present.



LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi, Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit,
44.1->192kbps. LMS & Squeeze2upnp (Beta - derived from squeezelite) to
Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC and Marantz CR603 UPnP renderers.  Squeezelite
to PC sound.  Minimserver (server) and upplay (control point) to same
amps & to upmpdcli/mpd PC renderers.  Meridian USB Explorer DAC from PCs
to speakers/headphones.  Wireless Xubuntu 14.04 laptop controls
LMS/upplay via Firefox.   Have a Touch with EDO, and a spare, but don't
use.
