Beeb on SqueezeCenter

[simon]

When I upgraded SlimServer to SqueezeCenter 7.3 I didn't bother reinstalling Alien BBC - if I wanted to listed to AM radio I could have sat in the car. Talking with Ed on Saturday apparently it's possible to stream iPlayer now, which is better quality supposedly.

So I've had a look round for how to do it and I can find lots of info about it, but I can't actually find how to do it. Has anybody done it and can give me a simple version of how to do it please? Please don't talk about tarballs and script files or I'm going to buy a DAB radio

iPlayer is a standard part of Squeezebox Server - has been for a while (at least it has for Windows)

I'm on version 7.5.1

Hi Chris

I'm on 7.3.2 - how do I find out if I've got it, and if I have (or haven't) how do I make it work?

You know where you stand with a black plastic disk!

Go to the Plugin section of the web interface and it should be in there.

IIRC !!!

Can't see anything in the plugins list that looks like the BBC Lee

Are you using the controller from the Duet ?
Can you access Squeezebox Server from the web interface of a computer on your network ?
I take it that you've got your QNAP working properly again. Did you manage to pin down what it was causing the problem ?

Yes accessing SC through my web browser. I tried to list the options in the plugins window but I couldn't easily copy it and I'd need a number of screenshots.

Well, another power supply sorted it. I've not had much luck with an explanation, just advice to buy a new PS. Fingers crossed, not had another event since the last one...
