The actual MPEG-DASH stream is:
https://vs-dash-ww-rd-live.bbcfmt.hs.lln...nifest.mpd
It is currently unavailable, but starts streaming just before the start of the advertised prom and stops just after the prom finishes, I believe.

Unfortunately, the stream appears to be in regular MPEG-DASH AAC (320kbps), rather than the experimental lossless MPEG-DASH FLAC, which the MinimServer/MinimStreamer prototype doesn't currently appear to support.

As advised by Simon I am using the URL

'http://vs-dash-ww-rd-live.bbcfmt.hs.llnwd.net/al/lossless/client_manifest.mpd ; the ' at the beginning is only there to prevent the forum from creating a link

I listened to last nights Prom using that URL, and am listening to it now. If I listen to it un-transcoded, Kazoo reports that the stream is FLAC 48kHz/16 bits. If I transcode it, the stream as seen by Kazoo is of course WAV24.

Did you mean this as a reply to @dround's post rather than mine?
Otherwise I don't know what you're getting at.
