If you just did the Listen Again (LA) change to BBCXMLParser.pm your LA streams are still on RTMP and I'd suggest you stay there for now. All functions work, including moving to a different time in the programme, and quality seems to be AAC 320kbps, which is the best the Beeb produces.
Live is, of course, now all HLS and requires the HLS plugin. At some point the Beeb say RTMP will stop for LA. Who knows when? No one around here seems to have known they would change their URLs, but not protocol or codec, on 9th March. I'm not even sure the Beeb knew. LA will then go to HLS, and maybe DASH as well. Who can tell? I'm sitting tight until RTMP fails to work. When that happens I'll go to the HLS version, which requires a different set of patches to BBCXMLParser.pm and also to iPlayer.pm. These patches are great, but done in some haste and don't restore full functionality. If you select an LA stream and click to show the URL in the left hand pane of the GUI (default interface) the HLS URLs have 'apple-ipad-hls' in them, whereas the RTMP ones have 'mediaset/pc'.
