MinimStreamer connection to Cambridge StreamMagic problems.

The problem with byte-range requests is caused by the renderer (the Stream Magic) and you would get the same problem with any UPnP control point. Unlike the other issue, this isn't a bug as such but a design limitation that prevents this renderer from playing radio streams.

Mmmm perhaps I'm being a bit thick here. The Cambridge Connect control point has a function to get the Stream Magic renderer to stream radio (it has a radio search function and a set of 20 radio presets) and the Stream Magic renderer has a radio function see picture attached. This implies that the Stream Magic renderer CAN (and does) play radio streams ... or am I missing something? Admittedly there is no specific radio function in the Bubble control point but it does stream radio to the local Nexus 7 renderer only but not to the Stream Magic. I'm Confused!!!

The reason why I'm trying to use MinimStreamer is because the Stream Magic cannot play MPEG DASH and therefore other than BBC R3 (aac 320 kbps) the remaining stations are now low res 128kbps MPEG. I was hpping MinimStreamer would give me a way around this issue as I'm not convinced that Cambridge Audio will ever implement MPEG DASH as their forecasts keep slipping and there has been no firmware update since last July.
