This is a 128kbit/sec MP3 stream URL - make it a favorite http://media-ice.musicradio.com/ClassicFMMP3 If using ClassicFM via the Tunein Radio menu on LMS - check pout the "Choose Stream" menu as it gives a choice between 128kbit MP3 and a 48kbit AAC and an estimated associated "reliability" --

I did a bit of digging. 1. ClassicFM now has all audio available in MP4/AAC - URLs 2. The CFM plugin screen scraped the weeb page to get Listen Again - AFAICT this screen has been eliinated from web site and if that is the case then this method is dead. 3. "LIsten Again" has been re-implemented f

bpa, Just a feedback about the plug-in at the end of the programme while in 'Listen Again' mode. At the end of the 3 hour programme that we had on the Touch (Nick Bailey Hall of Fame Monday 28th) using the plug-in, the Touch seamlessly restarted the programme. The 'repeat' setting on the Touch

Hi bpa, just enabled this plugin, and it's all functioning perfectly, so thank you very much for that. there's a small cosmetic issue, in as much as (I think) it appears the icons used are being sourced from a CDN cache or something, and are no longer there. http://www.mysqueezebox.com/public/i
