   I'm probably not understanding the problem here and I'm probably   
   about to talk nonsense as a result But...   
      
   I have two different headless pi systems on my desk in front of me   
   that can play all the BBC streams intended for UK reception. As far   
   as I know there is no log on or anything just playing a stream.   
      
   This is the stream for Radio 4.   
   http://as-hls-uk-live.akamaized.net/pool_904/live/uk/bbc_radio_f   
   urlw/bbc_radio_fourlw.isml/bbc_radio_fourlw-audio%3d320000.norewind.m3u8   
      
   That's a 320k stream.   
      
   My understanding is that if you change anywhere it says 'uk' to be   
   'ww' then you get the international stream.   
      
   You can find the complete set at:   
   http://www.radiofeeds.co.uk/   
      
   One of the players I'm testing at this moment is the RoPieee player   
   for headless pi, it's free but it's a locked system with no command   
   line. I tell it what to play by choosing from a list held by   
   Minimserver running on a nas and an iPad. It works great but no   
   command line.   
      
   The other system is similar in function but is not locked down and is   
   just mpd installed on a pi, I've not tried command line because I use   
   it as described above but there is the normal Linux command line, I   
   think it's likely you could persuade it do as you want.   
      
   Sorry to have wasted your time, I'll go back under my stone now.   
      
   Bob.
