    Thanks @Holzi - I don't think I screwed up, but I will try to check.

    Could you maybe try these dlls?

    of course i can and here is the result (y) Fixed and working, now when i select the second stream it stops the first one and plays the one i just selected practically instantly.

    So it does look like I screwed up. So, do we think this

    - 0004469: [Audio player] Internet Radio Stream has to be selected twice (sebastiii) - merge pending.

    is definitely ready to merge? If so, could @Sebastiii merge it? Then I will make a new build.

    One issue comes out of my testing of the Picture module (thread https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...-pictures-and-miss-others-mantis-4472.119431/)

    1st of all, the changes @Seabstiii did there work great - no regressions and working fine (so can be merged I would say)

    2nd is an issue with playback of Folder.m3u Music while doing a slideshow. This was repaired in Mantis 4276 for this release, but in combination with the audio player changes for this release there are still issues occurring (music player can hang MP if Videos are shown in the slide show, Player "steals" input from picture module and processes them during fade-in/out, so you can pause the music while not pausing the slide show, etc).

    From my point of view, we can either: Live with this and log a mantis to fix it in 1.5 or we could disable folder.m3u playback for 1.4 as well (as it was in 1.3) and still mantis the issues to fix them in 1.5 (@hwahrmann said we can not fix these threading issues in 1.4).

    What to do?

    Not only with folder.m3u, if you start a music from MyMusic and go to MyPictures with picture/video, you will run into the issue.
    Can you try wasapi mode ? it seems to be better (read no hang) :) but it can happen.

    I don't think anything in this build will help.

    Since your report does not relate to this build, could you please post it in the 1.4.0 Pre Release section of the forum, and I will delete it from here.

    That is quite critical issue, freezes are always nasty to have. I'm not sure how common the use case is where people have music running in background when watching pictures, but I would assume it is quite common.

    In my opinion this must be fixed for 1.4.0.
