For BPA
Firstly, Thanks for all your efforts in keeping the BBC HD services
running over the years. I remember the flap a couple of years back when
the URL's changed and despite being an "old" IT Manager the grief of
trying to patch the various files on my readynas cos I forgotten a lot
of the unix commands!
Regarding the current 404 error, please could you advise what type of
stream this is as again the BBC seems to provide lots of different
formats via different vendors, e.g. There are the various phone radio
iplayer and tunein apps etc
Where I am confused --- is the squeeze plugin "BBC iplayer" HD 320kbs?
e.g. For all those play again BBC national stationsthat have the 404
error?- I think they are? ---I know the listen live is 320kbs.
Then what are the squeeze plugin for "BBC iplayer Extras"? I believe
these are lower quality 128kbs?
As regarding complaining to the BBC, I have emailed the BBC in the hope
of getting some feedback, but non so far. I saw your comments that the
service is provided by a third party, and the possibility that the URL's
are protected. Well I am thinking of complaining to Ofcom about this if
not resolved soon, and would encourage others to do similar. After all
this is a public broadcaster, and in this modern age of internet
steaming I can't understand their logic of withholding information. The
BBC has been transmitting On FM for over 60 years ( also via a third
party contractor) and still using same frequencies from my local TX. It
would not make sense to change frequency to a different band and not
tell their listeners, so I don't see the logic of changing or
withdrawing these streaming URL's without notification!
