I can't remember the exact detaisl but the numebr relate to player
buffer fullness - undecoded and decoded.  That said, they won't help you
solve rebuffering.

Rebuffering occurs when the player has not enough data - i.e. internal
decoded buffer is empty.

When streaming a station the player can receive dataeither directly form
the station or via LMS.  Stream have to go through LMS either because
transport protocol used is not supported by player  (e.g. Spotify, BBC
DASH or HLS) or because the audio format isnot support by the player and
has to be transcoded (e.g. Boom does not support AAC).

IIRC although LMS is required setup Pandora connection once playing it
is a MP3 stream which plays direct to player.  Don't know about Deezer.

Booms is an "old" player now with a small internal buffer which means
audio from station has to be smoth stream to avoid rebuffering - if the
stream is "lumpy" and data comes in bursts then player is liable to run
out of data. 

If you are playing AAC stream and LMS is on a Windows system - there may
be another issue but .


Things to try:

1. Under LMS WebUI Settings./Advanced/Network change "Radio Station
Buffer Seconds" to a higher number.  This will increase the "delay"
before station starts playing but increase the amount of data buffered
in player.  Can help smooth out "lump"
2. Under LMS WebUI Setting/Player/<playername>/Audio set "Streaming
Method" to "proxied".  Thsi will mean data from station will first  be
buffer by LMS - ans LMS hosts have bigger buffers and acts as an
intermediate - this can help smooth out "lumpy" stream
