You could try getting your server to do the AAC decoding rather than on
the radio, the high bitrate and sample rate BBC AAC streams are on the
edge of what the radio can keep up with, especially on the community
firmware.
On your server settings on Settings->Advanced->File Types  set AAC to
disabled.  That will force the server to do the decoding to flac.  The
decoding has to be done somewhere, in this instance it is probably
better to do it on the server.

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Assign a BBC Sounds app radio station to a preset?

All the above suggestions work,  although you can simply hold down the
preset button while the station is playing to assign it to that button.

For info, there is actually an aac 'hls' stream of virgin radio that is
of better quality than the mp3 stream that tunein provides.

It is possible to play this hls stream via the bbc Iplayer app.   I've
constructed the following bbc iplayer compatible url, and added that my
favourites.  Including the image :)


Code:


  
iplayer://live?hls=http://virginradio-uk-hls-128-stereo.akamaized.net/hls/live/2000320/virginuk_128/playlist-128000.m3u8==https://virginradio.co.uk/radioplayer/live/img/virgin-logo.png=fm/ce1/c201/09880

Re: [SlimDevices: Radio] Fixing the White Screen of Death

 Hi, I have ordered the keyboard display and it arrived quickly (within
 Gemany). Replacement went well. The most difficult was to remove the LCD
 from the board (it is glued). Additionally I had to cut off a little
 metal pin from the frame around the display. The connection to the radio
 board is easy (no soldering involved).
 After 10 minutes I happily saw the Free your music screen and renamed
 the radio from Radio kaputt to Radio Weiß 2 :)
 
 Thanks again for posting, I will have an eye on broken G19 keyboards (it
 seems that the gamers rather destroy some of the heavily used keys than
 the display).

Great to hear it worked for you too, Florian.  :D  

Mine also had the little metal protrusion, I just bent it back and forth
a couple of times and it broke off cleanly.

One other point worth mentioning, is that the company (Eisgold) only
posts to within Germany, so I had to use a german mail forwarding
company to forward the parcel on to me (mailboxde.com), that added 4
euros to the cost of the item.  But still made it a good value fix for
me.
