Hi,

First of all for your great effort to quickly resolve the problems
caused by the technology switch of the BBC. Special thanks to bpa for
his current efforts! Go raibh maith agat! It works quite good for me at
the moment, I have to report only minor issues.

I will describe my setup first:
    
- Outside UK
- Logitech Media Server Version: 7.8.1 - 1402661598 @ Sun Jun 15
  03:02:35 UTC 2014
- on Seagate Goflex Net with Debian Wheezy
- Kernel Linux goflex1 3.13.1-kirkwood-tld-2 (bodhi @ doozan forum)
- ffmpeg from www . deb-multimedia . org (8:1.0.10-dmo1) (update from
  Wheezy stock ffmpeg was necessary because otherwise ffmpeg processes
  would remain after stopping a stream and eating up CPU power)
- Android-App "Logitech Squeezebox Controller" (by Logitech)
- Squeezebox Radio
- Triodes BBC iPlayer Plugin v1.2.14
- bonzes nonuk menu.opml for BBC iPlayer Plugin (post #2511)
- bpa's Plugin PlayHLS (now tweaked with bpa's latest suggestion
  "don't transcode when AAC in HLS" @ post #2589)
  

Wheezies ffmpeg gave me a headache because processes wouldn't stop. One
single ffmpeg process eats up 90% of my CPU according to top. Therefore
the last mentioned tweak by bpa in my list is really welcome! It cuts
out the usage of ffmpeg for me. The streaming starts way faster as
compared to when ffmpeg is involved (slow start).

My only remaining problem: When I use the buttons and knobs on my
Squeezbox Radio to select a live radio stream within Triodes plugin
there is a 70% chance that the stream will never start. Sometimes a
stream will buffer and start, sometimes not.

This problem does not occur when I select the station for this
Squeezebox Radio using either the Port 9000 web frontend or the Android
app. I always use Triodes plugin when I select a station.

Cheers,
hepi
