- pass: _radioepg._tcp.pub.lkradio.net publishedpriority 10, weight 10, port 80 -> pub.lkradio.net
- warn: Only the older _radioepg record is publishedWhat to do: Add _radiospi._tcp.pub.lkradio.net on port 443 as well, so receivers that use HTTPS can find the SI file.
- info: _radiovis._tcp: not publishedSlideshow/visuals (STOMP) - optional, only needed for a live slideshow service.
