BBC radio streams not working

[PhilD]

I wanted to report that the newest approach is working on my Roberts Stream 83i in 'Internet Radio' mode, making a much more elegant solution than anything else I've found. To achieve this I added the custom url to the Frontier Silicon Radio Portal website. Unfortunately custom streams on the portal don't offer AAC as a stream type but the mp3 option seems to work fine.

On a separate note, I had MinimServer/Streamer/Radio running on a raspberryPi B+ with raspbian but encountered dropouts when multiple clients were accessing the same radio stream. I've now installed everything on a spare net-top and all seems to be running well without dropouts.

Is it reasonable that the pi ran out of grunt with multiple clients accessing the same stream?

Thanks for the hard work and for offering such a neat solution to the BBC's mess.
