Looks like I've got to confess.

The pi based player I've been using for years is based on mpd plus Pete Manchester's mediaplayer which adds OpenHome features.

It turns out that the mpd system is far more tolerant of incorrect syntax and information in the m3u playlist links to radio stations.

I noticed quite quickly that if [;mp3] was missing, it would play on the mpd system but not on the RoPieee system but those were easy to fix.

Last night I found that the BBC streams problems mwere the same.
I had [;mp4a] in the brackets for the HLS streams. No idea where I got that from but it worked with the mpd system.

Then looking at exaples last night I thought I should just try [;aac]. It worked.

#EXTINF:-1, [;aac] BBC Radio 3 320K Stereo

So just a foolish mistake on my part.

Thanks.
