Stations that start with an advertisement #6

Hello, Trying to listen to 98.7 WFMT (a Chicago Classical station), and when playing through my iPhone, through the TuneIn app, there is a 20 second advert before the station begins playing. When I play WFMT (tunein:station:s28807) through pimusicbox, I hear the 20 second advert, but that's all. It doesn't get to the actual station. Is the problem because of the advert?

Hi. Yep, it's the advert. The playlist for this station contains two streams, a short advert stream and then the live broadcast stream.

Unfortunately the way mopidy-tunein currently works, only the first stream is taken and I think some fundamental changes are needed to support this kind of thing properly. However, in the meantime I will hack something and make a new release. Hopefully I can do this before I leave for my holidays tomorrow!

Thanks for taking the time to report these bugs, it's much appreciated.
