I'm glad that you got your problem sorted after all the effort you put
in - many users just give up.
Your experience confirms my belief that uninstalling is the only way to
definitively test whether security software is causing a problem -
disabling/turning off is not conclusive.

Well, a big thanks to you both for this.
goharbourview123. The Kasperskyy AntiVirus I had installed (latest
edition?) appears different from yours. "Trusted Zone" is in a different
place and the "Do not scan all network traffic at any remote host and at
any remote port" setting does not seem to e
Hi ModelCitizen
Not sure if I'm the user bpa is referring to who had similar problems
with BBC .asx streams when launched from Squeezecenter (as it was then),
but which were OK on SqueezeNetwork (as it was then). Anyway just in
case this might help, here's how I got my Kaspersky a/v software to s
Unfortunately(?) the iPlayer streams work at the moment (even all but
Radio 2 of the ASX streams worked this morning!). I've attached the log
file for what it's worth.
Are there any useful debugging options for the ASX WMA streams?
I'm going to entirely uninstall Kaspersky Anti-Virus later today
mplayer ingores most of the HTTP header info and tries to play a stream
by processing the byte stream so sometimes it tests a lot of choices
which fail before it gets it right - it makes mplayer very flexible.
This sort of implies that the http headers being returned from BBC are
being interfered
Cheers for this. I installed mplayer and entered the string. It played
BBC Radio 4 just fine... whilst WPM and SBS would not.
I don't know what to make of the log. There are errors, but mostly they
look inconsequential to me (missing bitmap files where you'd not excpect
to have them anyway etc),
Some security s/w still interfere with network streams even when
disabled - I find definitive test is when the security s/w is
uninstalled.
There are few possible sources of the problem such as DNS, HTTP for ASX
or buffering the audio. A reasonable test to see what is happening
during connection
I'm sort of slightly embarrassed that it has never crossed my mind that
the problem above could be caused by my main PC (the one hosting
Squeezebox Server), but it looks like it might be.
At this moment I can not get any BBC ASX streams to play via Windows
Media Player on my my main home machine
Hi Bryan,
I have had this problem whilst running two different AV progs, Eset's
NOD32 and Kaspersky. Just now I tried the Radio 4 ASX stream using
Windows Media Player with Kaspersky turned off. Still no connection. I
am currently VPN'ed into my work machine from home so tried that too. At
work w
It may be coincidence but another BBciPlayer user has posted a message
about getting the "Error- Item not found in playlist." message on a
local radio stream.
I have seen this message happen with some security software which
buffered up http responses to examine them but some chunks of http were
This morning at 6.30am I could get any BBC Radio feeds via my Logitech
Squeeze devices or Window Media Player using the normal asx streams
(listed below) or the iPlayer high quality ones. This is the worse this
problem has ever been. Normally I can get one radio station (excepting
the almost alway
Okay, I understand a bit more, packing for trip now but will install new
apps and repeat tests next week.

The RadioTime feeds ("\Local\National Networks") is relayed through the
US and the AlienBBC is RealAudio - so neither of these will help

1. Install BBC from under Radio Networks from the App gallery.
2. Install RadioFeed
I'm also on Plusnet in the UK and just installed 7.4 (WHS version) to my
