Did anyone get anywhere with LMS playing Classic FM HD? I have now found
someone that claims to have worked out the magic urls, but they change
with time. If I knew anything about writing perl and LMS plugins I'd
look at it myself. Anyway his blog entry is below, but you have to ask
for the url
There's an HD on/off slider in the app on my iPad.

No. I can't find anything on the Classic FM website or elsewhere as to
what they actually mean.

Well I'm listening to Classic FM HD with the iPad app on my Air2, but I
can't really say it sounds any better. But then I'm listening on the
Air2's builtin speakers which sound pretty rubbish anyway.
Owen Smith's Profile:
My Classic FM iOS App updated today. It claims to support new HD audio.
I can't find anything on their web site that says what this actually is.
But anyway, is there a way to play this with LMS?

Which version number of LMS for Windows? There are many.

Showing it's age now given it refers to Concorde Class (a great loss, I
flew Concorde London to JFK once, sigh).
And whoever posted that X.400 lost out due to Internet mail is entirely
correct.

Despite that I found the Concorde seats by far the most comfortable
airline seats I have ever sat in. They actually fitted the human back,
which others appear not to. I have a bad back and am sensitive to this
sort of thing. This was a BA

They had to refit them, the extra weight of the fuel tank liners added
after the Paris accident had to be won back somewhere. They did it by
refitting the interior, apparently the new seats were a lot lighter than
the old ones.

Because DACs do upsampling internally, which in turn makes the post DAC

I would simply want to use a Chromecast Audio as a squeezebox player.
The casting means nothing to me, not interested. But if I could use
SqueezeToUPNP to a Chromecast Audio the same as I would with a UPNP
device to play audio as if it were a SqueezeBox, then it might be useful
to me.

, this was the
original reason I chose Squeezebox instead of Sonos. I'm now seriously
into Triode's excellent BBC iPlayer plugin for the Squeezebox, I have
