What version of Raspbian and LMS and BBCiPlayer plugin ?
I asusme you areplaying a BBCRadio 3 live. 
How are you playing the Station - from BBCiPlayer menu ?  From a
favorites ? Other ?

SB3 players are dumb - the interface and all screen & remote activities
are done in the LMS and nothing to do with plugin so "fiddling " left
/right are just wasting time, you might as well wait & twiddle thumbs
for 30 secs.

Whn playing a live stream, the BBCiPlayer plugin first connects player
to a stream and *once* it is playing, plugin then has to go fetch "live"
program data.  This can take up to 30 secs before usable data arrives
but if there are network issues it can take longer.

Player animation should be smooth. I have a Boom with an Rpi4 and it is
smooth.  Jerky usually indicates network issues.
How is Rpi4 connected to network ?
How is SB3 connected to network ?
If SB3 uses wireless, What is the wireless signal strength for Sb3 as
reported on WebUI/Settings/Information page ?
