Hello,

as many of you may know, the BBC withdrew their internet broadcasts from the Shoutcast protocol. Instead they now are using the HLS and DASH protocols. I hate that, since they were some of the best broadcasts and I loved to listen to them (esp. BBC Radio 6 Music), though I am not from the UK.

My wish is simple: Could WACUP support HLS and DASH?

Thank you.

At some point it should happen but other things need to finish being replaced before that'll be started on (i.e. I need to get WACUP to no longer be re-using the in_mp3 plug-in from 5.666 which is the one that is responsible for MP3 & AAC based stream playback as the old BBC urls were provided over).
