I just checked an old Squeezeplug on Pi Model B v1 -which has same
processor as pi Zero.

Live streams non UK 96kbps.  Higher speed streams should reduce the
delays to start up as delay is due to data shortage.

For a SBR receiver, There was a delay but settign of 5sec/255 usually
means live stream start within 10 secs - typically 5 and no subsequent
breaks.
If SBR was synced to a Radio - then delay was longer - and needed dealy
setting of min 10secs to get quick styart - if delay setting was set to 
5 then start up delay was actuallyt 15sec.  So synced player have a bad
effect.

To know if transcoding is happening.

If you can do a pstree command when playing a stream then the faad
subprocess is obvious with somehting like the following

Code:
--------------------
    
  
  --squeezeboxserver -- squeezeboxserve --- sh -+- faad
  `-flac
  
  
--------------------
