OK understood - seems one inevitable conclusion on the radio front. 
Find some time... understand how the alpha HLS code works and have a go
at it in C, I've got the hang of LUA, but I think on it's own it will be
too slow.  It's the find time part!  Well for now at least we have 100%
working solution.  If anyone else is interested.... or perhaps it will
just turn up on the test repository ;)

On the Triode Alpha - no problems with buffering or DNS (the issue is
the live MP3 streams).  The problem with the Alpha plugin, is that it
consumes so much CPU - especially if 3 people are using different
radios, that the LMS runs out of steam on the original Pi.  The
advantage of your version is that it consumes so much less in CPU terms
(radio doing aac decode), that it simply works!  I guess it's a compiled
ffmpeg Vs perl.  The ffmpeg on the forum for the Pi seems fine working
with the radio.
