BBC seem to have started the Radio 3 Live stream again ahead of the
Proms. 

To play Flac - you need the V 1.5.4.* of the plugin as Flac is a bit of
an experiment by BBC.  Once installed then you need to set Live Stream
setting to "DashFlac > DASH" and play the "BBC Radio 3 Flac" stream

To install V1.5.4.* use the repo URL
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/bpaplugins/V154testrelease-repo.xml

Some updates for the plugin may be needed - these will be delivered
through the above repo.

As chunks are bigger and duration of each chunk is smaller (3.84 secs
Flac vs 6.4 secs for AAC) some buffering issues might show up.  

Known issues at the moment:
1. Bit rate is incorrectly displayed on Web GUI - needs to be checked
2. When playing Flac stream a number of extra unnecessary messages are
logged such as "long chunk fetch time" and "Invalid estimated delay"
3. Realtime "current track" program info is not always displayed
