I think it's the terminology that is mixed up. It should be Linear (live Broadcast) and Non-linear (streaming) The changes were announced back in May of this year. Live Broadcast is to stop and content made avaialble via streaming. What format the Streaming takes will have to be heard when it happens, I can't find any information that is current. According to this https://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/speeches/2022/digital-first-bbc-director-general-tim-davie there is a three year waiting time :rolleyes: You will just have to wait. As the station is already on BBC Sounds, perhaps it will just be left as is; save as a favourite and add to a Preset via the Presets Editor (which surely you have done already?). ronnie ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Man in a van's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=43627 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=113045 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
