It freezes when the remote port in unreachable (usually radio is
down). In fact the control to the rhythmbox's window is back after
gstreamer timeouts (IMHO).

Updating the list reduces the probability to unreach radio.

It's a nice feat. anyway, even if it the timeout problem persists, and
in addition it could help in this way.

One way could be like streamtuner does.

I'll take a look at streamtuner code, if it can help.
