A so called dedicated Airstream 10 internet Radio suffered the same issue as Nokia Internet radio.

Could you look into making the buffering as robust as the N900 media player internet radio? Or maybe a configurable buffer?

Again, thanks in advance.

I'm using the Phonon APIs for playback (QtMultimediaKit APIs don't retrieve the ICY metadata). Phonon doesn't have a configurable buffer size, unfortunately. To implement that, I need to use my own IO device and pass it to the player. I have already done some work on that (required for the recording features), but the problem is that I also need to implement the MMS protocol (which many stations use).
