Re: [slim] How to make 'stopped' radio station to 'autorestart' ?

I have the same problem. Using Squeezebox Boom over wifi, internet music randomly stops (last.fm, internet radio). I don't have this when playing from my library. SC is 7.3.2 on Fedora 10, wired connection. A reconnect on stop would be great. Have voted for the bug. Any other workarounds?
