It appears my problem is that my presets are not what I thought they were. (See the 2 lines with "Found a playlist" when I selected Country 108 then WCBS).
I changed the URLs for these 2 presets to point directly to the .aac/.mp3 and the delays are gone! So I conclude a few things: - The player needs EXPLICIT urls to the stream to avoid delays - Playlists probably also need the same - I need to examine and fix all of my presets and favorites on both radios. Tedious. Thanks again for all you help.
