There is no definitive way to identify the cause of you BBC start/stop
problems but it sounds like an internet issues.

When you have the problem - are you listening to Live or Listen Again
streams.

If the stream from the BBC breaks down and the buffer in AlienBBC is
depleted - the stream will revert to short burst of sound followed by
silence. This will generally only happen in live streams.  If the BBC
is the problem then if you press << - the stream will be restarted and
buffer refilled and live stream will start again in about 10 secs.

If the problem happens with Listen Again then it is likely to be a
something to do with wireless - if you install Lame and then disable
RTSP->WAV and RTSP->FLAC, it should minimise the problem as you will
used MP3 to SB and not Flac. 

Finally, in the UK you can listen to BBC WMA streams for live stations
- this can be done with Squeezenetwork. I can't say how good or bad are
these streams.
