I actually updated the world_service url's in the menu.opml that bpa is
now using here - those are in the same form as the other radio station
urls rather than the rather odd ones that had been used previously.
These are 96kbps rather than the previous 64kbps, and there are actually
separate uk and nonuk urls that both work. They are both the same
bitrate though and seem to play the same thing AFAIKT.

I included the different URL for uk world service on DASH as well just
in case it does turn out to play different uk-only content. It does look
to be valid, and returns a good dash .mpd (index) file. It's just that
the stream data fetches return a 503 code saying "The server is
temporarily unable to service your request.  Please try again later.".
So I thought it might start working soon - and this is a test version,
after all. But maybe it won't ever work...

So yes, to avoid this confusion it is probably best to use the nonuk URL
in the uk section for now.
