I don't know what conhost is - it looks like something new since Vista
and some sort of MS shim layer but since Groovesalad plays OK I don't
think it is cause of problem.

Since no CPU blips when using R4 - that seem to indictae that write of
data tfrom LMS to socketwrapper's input Named Pipe are not happening.  -
the BBCIplayer plugin has its own write routine so it looks like there
is some subtle difference between the LMS version and BBCiPlayer but it
may be due to  Windows Server/VM specific behaviour and handling of IO
sockets.
