PCP
Living Room | piCorePlayer v6.1.0 | www v0009 | linux
4.19.122-pcpCore_v7 | piCore v10.3pCP | Squeezelite v1.9.7-1282-pCP

Thanks mherger for updating the docker - that infinite loop bug is
squashed.

So where are we now. I've tried that TuneIn Radio3 stream and, drum roll
please...same result: network dies. So now I've changed focus to TuneIn
and the stream itself.

Here's an interesting article
https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/aboutthebbc/entries/37e4e3f6-fbd2-4c14-8d72-7f7139641582

I can confirm that Radio 3 is not available via the TuneIn website:
https://tunein.com/radio/BBC-Radio-3-913-s24941/

But I do get some brief output via TuneIn on piCorePlayer before the
crash, so I guess the TuneIn plugin is in some way accessing a stream
that is still provided in order to keep internet radio appliances
working.

I'm calling it a night now, I'll look into the particulars of the
streams tomorrow. I'm pretty happy actually; I feel like my threat to
give up on network audio just because of a random problem with a
particular radio stream would be throwing the baby out with the
bathwater. PiCorePlayer with Jivelite still seems like the slick,
no-frills, no-vendor lock-in solution I've been looking for. Thanks for
all your help keeping the dream alive.

But I must sort out the Radio 3 thing, that's what I listen to most. I
feel that even if the stream is bad or unsupportable, piCorePlayer
should fail more gracefully. But that's for tomorrow, and probably in a
new thread.
