Thanks for the reply HB. I've checked the player settings and no
Sorry if this has been addressed in another post but I couldn't spot

When I play a my playlists from Tidal, it seems to cut off the last 10
secs of each track and then there is a longish silence (i.e. 10 secs
longer than it should be) before the next track starts. The timer seems
to 'stall'

Thanks for your help with this. I've downloaded the 1.6.6 zip file from
Github and copied over the menu.opml from there to my instance of LMS.
All sorted now!
I don't know why I had an old/incorrect menu.opml but nice to have it
fixed.

No I haven't customised anything
Thanks for keeping this great plugin up-to-date. It is excellent.
I have a very minor question - I am at v1.6.6 but the Radio 4 icon still
isn't showing. Neither is the Radio Scotland one.
Is there something else I should be doing to get the icons to show?

I have changed the Stream Preference from DASH>HLS>MP3>FlashAAC to
HLS>DASH>MP3>FlashAAC
The info now updates with each song/programme.

When I turn on a new BBC stream the display shows the current music or
programme being played. However it doesn't update itself when the music
or programme changes. (I'm sure it used to). It does update if I
