For whatever Triode is not around anymore but his work for JazzFM with
BBCiPlayer was to use its Flash play ability to play JazzFM streams. BBC
are now moving to DASH whereas JazzFM has moved  to MP3 so there is no
commonality in audio format.

I know nothing about JazzFM nor do I listen to it - but I looked briefly
at the URLs to see if any BBC stuff is common.  There is no commonality
- the UK Radioplayer is just a clearing house/common launching point for
stations - it does not insist on a common data format.

Looking at Jaimie Crick daily shows URLs - the hex number that changes
does not relate to a simple time code - day to day it changes values
change by 405 but over a weekend (4th to 8th) - the difference is huge. 
So the only way to play back catalogue will be to have a plugin which
request web pages and extracts the urls from the web page. 
For example Jaime Crick "listen again" is at 
http://www.jazzfm.com/mobilepages/od.php?a=category&catId=214
Other programs have other catID values.
