There has been some recent discussion in the Material Skin thread about
some issues that seem to be related to RNP. In brief, the issue is that
when some stations are in the current play queue, either waiting to be
played or previously played, but not currently playing, LMS displays
incorrect times (elapsed time and remaining time) for the currently
playing track or stream. I mentioned this in this thread some time ago:

Paul, you requested a log for this sort of occasion, and one should be
attached. It begins at 14:58:45 when I added a station (Radio Swiss
Jazz) to be played next. After RSJ began to play, I added another
station (CRo Jazz) to be played next after RSJ. I also added another
station, Jazz24, to the end of the play queue, but I do not see it
reflected in the log.

At about 15:16:40 I stopped RSJ and started CRo Jazz playing. At about
15:19 I stopped CRo Jazz and continued playing local files that were
already in the queue. As the local files played, LMS continued to
display elapsed and remaining time for them as though an hour-long
program were playing. Also, the current_title tag reported by LMS via
the command line interface continued intermittently showing "Jazz Club,"
the title of the program on CRo Jazz. At about 15:28 I removed the
previously-played stations from the queue. After the local file that was
playing at that time ended, the displayed times reverted to showing the
correct times for the current track.

As Jim (Redrum) said when he brought the issue up recently, it is not a
crucial matter. My earlier report mentioned persistent issues that could
continue after the problem stations were removed from the queue, but I
have not seen that happen recently. Most people will probably never see
this, as stations are more frequently played than appended to the queue.
Like Jim, I sometimes use the queue as a set of temporary presets,
allowing me to easily switch between different stations. That's when
this minor issue becomes very noticeable.

LMS 8 nightly running on Raspberry Pi OS. Mostly virtual players,
occasionally with SB Radio, Boom or Classic.
