I haven't looked at the log. Please do a run with a real Squeezebox as there are issues about transcoding streams (e.g. aacplus) into MP3. I can't remember the details but if you are bit rate limiting - it won't work. Bit rate limiting is intended for audio tracks and not streams. edit:

The AACplus template is an unusual way of using mplayer as the stream is being handled by SC and that is why the dmeuxer is used unlike AlienBBC or WMA streams. Using the demuxer means that any station info in ICY format will appear. If you don't use the demuxer then you will have to change the
