Playlist problem - plays each station on list in turn for few seconds

Some players don't expect this, so they think the stream is corrupt and stop playing the stream after a few seconds when they encounter the first or second chunk of metadata.

When you add the extra line (with or without transcoding), MinimStreamer filters the stream and removes the "Icy" metadata, so the player is happy.

Hi Simoncn - thanks for the information.

For your information - without the transcoding mp3:wav line the Devialet Phantom only plays a few seconds and then moves on to the next playlist item. Not sure how this helps but thought it might be useful information for any other Minimstreamer/Devialet users.
