Hmm, not that easy, straightforward or even doable for someone like me
with a vast library orgainised in music folders and sub-folders. The
album route is doable but a pain. Thanks all the same.

HLS is 1st preference and  1.4* and1.5.* are all about playing DASH and
playing setting only apply to DASH.  HLS code has not changed from 1.3 


Change the Live and on Demand to 

DASH > HLS > MP3 > FlashAAC.

Strange - the settings worked for other W10 users.

Why don't you save the mood list to a playlist? Give it the name of
whatever mood you've saved.

If you save it using the official Spotify app in LMS, it'll appear as
one of your LMS playlists. 

If you save it in the Spotify web or mobile app, it'll appear as a
Spotify playlist which you can then access through the Spotify Family
plugin.

Tried 1 minute and 2 minute and it doesn't seem to help. I guess I'll go
back to the HLS streams which seemed reliable. If you want me to send

This has been seen before - there is something weird with windows and
transcoding.  It happens with some low end system but also some high end
but not middling !!.  I have tried repodiuing on my i5 SSD 16Gb but I
think it may also be somehting to so with UK bit rates.

The problem seem to be high spec multicore system get ahead of the
stream and runs out of data.  The workaround is to increase "delay to
start live stream"  - try 1 min and see how it goes.

I have done this and the metadata is now there. Thank you for that.

However the steams are not performing very well. With "Seconds to delay
start live stream" at 15s and "Buffer fullness threshold" at 255, each
stream takes nearly 30s to start, it breaks up a couple of times and
then settles down to work. The HLS streams start reliably in about 1
second.

The easiest way to play HLS with program info is to use the updated

I am very sorry I think I am losing the plot. I wrote "on demand". I
meant live! E.g. if I am listening to Radio 4 live, it would be nice to
know if it is Desert Island Disks or the Today Program playing or

There is no point saying another radio station has info so why not the
BBC.  If you want info on possibilities you must give specific details
from the BBC iPlayer own web broswer based player playing HTML5.  Time
is the problem - I don't have the time to look around to try to guess
what people are hinting at.

I didn't know on demand program had more program segment info available
until 2 days ago when another SB user told me about an API which is in
being used by the get_iplayer application.  BBC have mentioned in API
descriptions that program info is available in segments, chapters and
tracks but it looks like only segments are available. 

That said it needs more investigation - especially to determine if it
will die in May 2017 like many of the older BBC APIs. At the moment all
I can say there is some segment info available  for some a small number
of programs on national BBC stations.  I don't know if the segment info
is what you are looking for  nor whether it is available for the
programd you listen to.

If you have specifc example of additional info you know about - please
give the specific example and I'll check them out.

Found another setting that was causing Cover Art to fail to display on
my mobile devices when listening to web radios:


What mobile app? And are you seeing this problem with all kinds of web 
radios, or only those supported by this plugin?



- Make sure "*Artwork resizing*" is set to "*Use mysqueezebox.com to
resize artwork*"


Are you saying that resizing in LMS wouldn't work?
