MC,

Since the Tune-in didn't work - it looks like something in the chain

bbc->mplayer->socketwrapper->lame/flac->SB 

is broken.

If the installation mplayer test still works then my guess is that
either (i) network issues / timeout/ congestion or (ii) something is
blocking socketwrapper.

Have you any security software installed and is socketwrapper marked as
an app which can do networking ? . If so try deleting it and readding it
to security s/w.

The best way to see what is going on is to run SC from a command prompt
and that way messages from mplayer and socketwrapper can be seen. 
Unfortunately it is a bit of effort. Below are the instructions if you
wish to try.

To run SC from a command prompt.
1. Stop SC.
2. Save a copy of Plugins/Alien/custom-convert.conf so you can
revert.
3. Edit using Wordpad the file Plugins/Alien/custom-convert.conf.
Change the "-really-quiet" on the mplayer lines to "-quiet". Save file
and end edit.
4. From Windows open a command prompt
5. Goto top left corner icon menu of command window and change
properties to change window size. Change window to 300 wide by 3000
lines long.
6. In command prompt window. Change directory (ie. use cd) to the SC
directory - if using a standard installation it is in c:\Program
Files\SqueezeCenter\server
7. Type in the command squeezecenter.exe and SC should start
normally.
8. From web interface (Setting/Advanced/Logging) enable logging as
follows plugin.alienbbc to DEBUG, player.source to DEBUG.
9. Try to play a BBC Listen Again stream
10. Log messages should scroll up and you should see some from mplayer
and also socketwrapper.
11. Wait 1 minute - at command prompt window - type CTRL/C to stop SC.
Wait for prompt.
12. Use command prompt window top left icon menu to copy all of the
log messages and paste them into text file
13. Zip the text file and Post the zipped text file.
