I'm thinking about trying this out.
Is this part of the latest release (AlienBBC v2.01 Beta1 for Windows
and SqueezeCenter 7.1), and if not, is it compatible with that
release?
The only file that the patch changes is RTSP.pm - the rest are extra
files? If I change that file and a new version
It's not compatible with 2.01 as RTSP.pm file was modified in 2.01. I
need to supply an update for the 2.01.

Re. my difficulty downloading the 'BBCLivePlus.zip' (no. 2 in the above
thread), can confirm that I had been using IExplorer. Downloaded again
using FireFox, and followed the instructions. The Plug-in works great!
Thanks for the good work.

Also a user can add a Local BBC stations by creating an appropriate URL
- Radio Ulster is an example.
To do this do I amend the BBCLiveplus.opml file with a text editor?
Where does the number e.g. Ulster 'AlienBBClivestationid=49977' , come
from?
Thanks

If on windows you may have to use Wordpad to edit the opml file.
The BBC source of station id came from the URLs associated with each
station on this page

This usually happens if using IE. If using IE - simple answer - use
Firefox. Alternatively if you can persuade IE just to download and
save it (i.e. not open) - then rename the file to a zip extension but
make sure extension are visible.

I understand what is happening when using IE. IE by default will
download the zip file and recompress it again in GZIP format. A format
for which MS has not provided a decoder !!
To unpack the IE downloaded file - rename the extension to GZ and then
download something like WinRAR or WinZIP to
Thanks - BBCLiveplus all seems to work for me as described above. I
have been looking for more BBC_Now_Playing info - thanks again!
Any chance of getting even more information - like actual band/track
information? I see it's on the BBC's own listen live displays in
their webpages, but only for
Only Radio 1 provides track info and that is part of a Flash player and
not easy to access.
Other more detailed What's On BBC information can be got using the
Info Browser by installing the Info browser addons. Radio 3 provides
good program listing.

Thanks - I'll investigate that too...
