You should probably post in the 3rd party plugin section. But the answer is that probably Pandora suffers from the same problem than Deezer, but just worse: if the player buffers too much, then there is a large gap between audio data request and these $*&!@ streaming services close the connection - I've already reduced that and I'll see if I can further shorten the buffering part, but it's more complicated than it sounds LMS 7.7, 7.8 and 7.9 - 5xRadio, 3xBoom, 4xDuet, 1xTouch, 1 SB2.
