Not sure what the point would be requoting the URLs for above streams mentioned by Simon Hughes is. Admittedly I didn't try them all, only the 320kbps ones.
Yes, I am using MinmServer's standard feature of providing radio streams and getting it to use the MinimStreamer transcoder, via a 3mu file.

I'm currently listening to Radio 5 live, for example, via the Foobar2000 player as a UPnP Renderer (requires the foo_UPnP plugin) and using MinimServer. You can actually view the URL it's using to connect to MinimServer, which in the above stream's case is
http://192.168.1.9:9790/minimstreamer/*/...nscode.wav

My version of Foobar2000 doesn't natively support streaming of HLS AAC, BTW.

Sorry. What I had wrong was the m3u file (I'm a little clueless about these files). I got it working now!

To be precise my m3u file now contains (for radio 3):

Code:

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,[*BBC 3 HLS] Streaming
http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/hls/uk/sbr_high/ak/bbc_radio_three.m3u8

So miminserver is a solution for any Internet Radio that also supports UPnP (which is probably most).

Result!
