The  feed we used appear to have got stuck somewhere back in 2007 when there was a run on the Northern Rock Bank!

I have attached an updated BBC 24 News station that I've checked works and
you can copy across to your My Documents/My TV folder on your device to
replace the broken one.

For future reference if it breaks again folks can "DIY" by following this menu:-

You will need to get a url for the BBC News 24 hour feed. I use Roku's Radio
Snooper (http://www.rokulabs.com/support_sb_dwnld_radiosnoop.php) to do this
by browsing to the BBC 24 Hour news page - http://news.bbc.co.uk/
setting my preferences windows media player and to low bandwidth ( <
256kbit) , viewing it and then checking the url's in the snooper for one
that looks something like:-

mms://wmlive-acl.bbc.co.uk/wms/news/news24_nb2_s1

(the nb appears to stand for a narrow band as opposed to broadband (high
bandwidth ) feed.

There is a FAQ explaining how to
create, edit and change Lobster Internet Radio and TV stations here:-
