...and look at the properties for the stream and you get:
BBC Media Player V2.14.10344.10570 bbc_radio_two | 128 | aac | AK
The same goes for the other stations.
Hi Rich,
First of all, thanks for your response on the iPlayer radio no-play situation - I'll persist a bit more.
The main reason for posting this message is regarding the above quote (a bit). I have my Sky HD box coupled up to the DAC7520 using optical and use this facility to listen to digital Radio. Just out of interest have you any idea what is the quality of the signal of radio broadcasts on Sky?
Cheers.
DaveK.

Power: Belkin PF40, Custom.hifi.cables Hydra and DC PSUs.
