It's great that you are able to take a rational approach to this, Jim. It IS an intriguing puzzle, and viewing it as such puts you at an advantage. If it were my system, I would probably be in a panic to get a non-essential feature working again. Since it's not my system, I can view your issue

Jim, have you cleared the playlist/queue on EVERY player in your system, including any group players? If not, that might be worth a try. (Not that I'm holding out a lot of hope...) LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players, occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.

Lots of references to Radio Paradise streams in that log, but that's to be expected, if you were trying to reload them. The log begins with a reboot at 12:39 pm on March 28. I don't know enough to say if the errors in the log tell us anything useful. LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS.
