I can include a *:wav transcode without causing any problems - does that mean minimstreamer does know it's an aac stream?

When it failed, were you using a UPnP control point to play the streams or were you giving the players hand-edited custom URLs in some other way? For UPnP renderers, you should use the former approach.

MinimStreamer knows that this is an AAC stream because of MIME type information that it receives from the BBC server.

I was, in all cases, using the player's own menu to select Internet Radio stations that have been coded into 'added stations' in vtuner. I was not using any UPnP Control Point, nor the player's Media Server menus.

Do we have our wires crossed on this? Both my players do both - Internet Radio, and Media Server using UPnP.
