I realized a fault in pCP-Squeezlite. My favourite local radio station has changed its stream url but TuneIn refused to fix it (another question why). https://tunein.com/radio/909-Jazzy-Rdi-s87189/
If I accidentally open this station the the system gets stuck. The menu is responsive, I can select another station but it never starts playing. Only system reboot recovers.
I assume it should be more robust. Connection issue may happen any time.

You are also using the script feature in squeezelite, correct? Disable the script and see if the problem resolves. Error handling in the script feature is not all that good.

You are correct. It works if I add the station manually and specify the link you mentioned. However manually added stations have e.g. no icon.
The station in Tunein app has wrong url (http://94.199.183.186/jazzy.mp3) and this triggers the fault.

I am not sure what you exactly mean on script feature in squeezlite. Anyway, I have two scripts configured as user commands on Tweaks config page of pCP. Both are disabled but the problem is still present. When I switch to another station, a "fetching track information" message appears on the top of the screen then couple of seconds later it turns to "stopped". If I restart Jivelite, at least half of the home menu items are missing.
Restart of squeezlite via pCP main page fails.
