In the last week or so the streams for BBC Local Radio stations in the UK appear to have stopped working.
For example BBC Radio Tees

I have tried a number of the links for some other of the many BBC local stations and it is the same for them.
I think the stream addresses are now out of date and may need to be updated by whoever supplies the links/database for Roon.
This is part of a wider problem discussed here.
The curators have managed to find alternative URLs and have been updating BBC stations off and on since then.
There are quite a few local stations and I’ll endeavour to update a few more this afternoon. Was there a particular station you would like updated first? (As well as Tees)
Edit: BBC Tees now updated
Brian…
Thanks ever so much for such a swift response and I apologise if I have duplicated a thread/concern/problem…
Reading the post you referenced it seems like the BBC is trying to stop access to its streams (in so far as it can) outside the “Sounds” app (which is OK as far as it goes, but also comes with the usual data collection and profiling that some of us don’t want, and does not work with some of our devices…)…
The ones I tend to listen to are Tees, York and Newcastle… Manchester sometimes… but if it’s an ongoing set of changes then I am happy to wait my turn…
ps - Tees now working for me as before, thanks very much…
They should be OK now.
PS no apologies necessary.
