Hi Robin,

I'll try that later, but I thought you might like to look at this page:
http://dave.org.uk/streams/
or http://dave.org.uk/streams/streams.yaml

It contains all the BBC radio data (rtsp references included), in YAML
format so it should be much easier to parse than the actual listen
again pages.
I've experimented a bit with adding these to MythStream, but the pages
are so big they're very slow and tricky to navigate.

Hope that helps!

Jonny
