BBC R3 Lossless Stream

The problem is not caused by the HTTP 200 response. It is caused by the Linn DS firmware not being able to handle WAV stream sizes of 2GB or greater. The limit should be 4GB but some buggy renderers treat the unsigned 32-bit value as if it were a signed value, which means a value of 2GB or greater is interpreted as being a negative number.

The workaround is to set stream.transcode to *:wav24-2gb. If you have specified a stream type of flac or aac in your .m3u playlist, you need to use flac:wav24-2gb or aac:wav24-2gb instead.
