While there are a few standard and metadata can be embedded in the
stream, metadata is often outside the stream to "encourage" listeners to
play the web site and see ads etc.  Does any other player show the
metadata (e.g VLC) 

Favorites does nothing except bookmark the URL. Unless the metadata is
in the stream - it won't be displayed - no "option" in Favorites will
change that. 

BBCiplayer plugin is specially developed to display BBC metadata data
made available on different non playing URLs. You may be mixing up URL
parameters with Favorites as BBCiPlayer uses special URL parameters to
assist with metadata.

There are a few other plugin which do similar for other stations (e.g.
FIP) - obtain metadata from non stream source.
