BBC radio streams not working

[Pastim]

I have tried the new format URL. Both my players use the vtuner website for radio sources.

On my Marantz M-CR603 player it gave garbled sound until I added /$!stream.aac after .....R3 . I had no transcode for an unspecified type, but did, from previous tests, have aac:wav. So that works, and is an option you may want to mention on minimradio.

On my Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC I used to get 'server error' with the long URL, but now get 'file format error'. I tried with and without /$!stream.aac . This player does work with the UPnP playlist item R3, but I guess that's a different bit of protocol handling in the player. Any thoughts?

I assume it doesn't matter that my m3u file is called BBC_Radio.m3u (I'm allergic to spaces)?

I shall mention minimradio on the BBC website.

Thanks a lot.
