RE: Internet radio streams
Your'e welcome. Most (all) channels are mp3 or aac anyways, so it should work with most renderers. It doesnt hurt to have the option (and maybe some autorefresh going on, or a dummy file that triggers refresh. plus a dummy file to make that station a favorite).
The point is I nobody want to manually make m3u files with presets, not if minimserver could dynamically parse xml lists from the various vendors. It would save a lot of time for us all, and I think it would be a great addition to minimserver.

For example for tunein, the xml/api located at http://opml.radiotime.com/Browse.ashx , then minimserver could just parse this just like Squeezebox Server does and present is as a folder for the controller points.

Actually I use MPD as a upnp renderer with Minimserver and the Lumin iPad app as a openhome control point. It works beautifully with no messing around, save for when I want to listen to internet radio. (I could of course make a playlist with the various internet radio stations and save that playlist to either the MPD native playlist or the built-in playlist manager of the Lumin app, but if internet radio was supported out the box inside Minimserver, then that would be fantastic news for everybody)
