Well, a big thanks to you both for this. goharbourview123. The Kasperskyy AntiVirus I had installed (latest edition?) appears different from yours. Trusted Zone is in a different place and the Do not scan all network traffic at any remote host and at any remote port setting does not seem to

I'm glad that you got your problem sorted after all the effort you put in - many users just give up. Your experience confirms my belief that uninstalling is the only way to definitively test whether security software is causing a problem - disabling/turning off is not conclusive. -- bpa

Unfortunately(?) the iPlayer streams work at the moment (even all but Radio 2 of the ASX streams worked this morning!). I've attached the log file for what it's worth. Are there any useful debugging options for the ASX WMA streams? I'm going to entirely uninstall Kaspersky Anti-Virus later

Hi ModelCitizen Not sure if I'm the user bpa is referring to who had similar problems with BBC .asx streams when launched from Squeezecenter (as it was then), but which were OK on SqueezeNetwork (as it was then). Anyway just in case this might help, here's how I got my Kaspersky a/v software to

I'm sort of slightly embarrassed that it has never crossed my mind that the problem above could be caused by my main PC (the one hosting Squeezebox Server), but it looks like it might be. At this moment I can not get any BBC ASX streams to play via Windows Media Player on my my main home machine

Some security s/w still interfere with network streams even when disabled - I find definitive test is when the security s/w is uninstalled. There are few possible sources of the problem such as DNS, HTTP for ASX or buffering the audio. A reasonable test to see what is happening during

Cheers for this. I installed mplayer and entered the string. It played BBC Radio 4 just fine... whilst WPM and SBS would not. I don't know what to make of the log. There are errors, but mostly they look inconsequential to me (missing bitmap files where you'd not excpect to have them anyway etc),

mplayer ingores most of the HTTP header info and tries to play a stream by processing the byte stream so sometimes it tests a lot of choices which fail before it gets it right - it makes mplayer very flexible. This sort of implies that the http headers being returned from BBC are being

This morning at 6.30am I could get any BBC Radio feeds via my Logitech Squeeze devices or Window Media Player using the normal asx streams (listed below) or the iPlayer high quality ones. This is the worse this problem has ever been. Normally I can get one radio station (excepting the almost

Hi Bryan, I have had this problem whilst running two different AV progs, Eset's NOD32 and Kaspersky. Just now I tried the Radio 4 ASX stream using Windows Media Player with Kaspersky turned off. Still no connection. I am currently VPN'ed into my work machine from home so tried that too. At work

I'm desperate. Any help very much appreciated. If anyone reads this who uses the UK ISP Plus.net (famous for their bandwidth shaping techniques) I'd be very, very appreciative if they'd select a few stations from the BBC App (install from App Gallery) and let me know if they play every time

The RadioTime feeds (\Local\National Networks) is relayed through the US and the AlienBBC is RealAudio - so neither of these will help ModelCitizen problems who wants to test direct WMA streams direct from BBC. 1. Install BBC from under Radio Networks from the App gallery. 2. Install RadioFeeds
