I am having trouble since looong to make xmms play m3u playlist files.
Here is the problem:
If I click on an m3u link on a webpage in mozilla, xmms starts but gives
an error: "Couldn't connect to host <host>"
Example: I tried clicking on "vybrations la passion du son [haut-debit]"
mp3 audio on http://dir.xiph.org/index.php and got the message:
Couldn't connect to host freestr1.ovh.net:8004
Then I download the m3u file (listen.m3u) from the website above and
tried starting xmms from command line and got this error (and the dialog
box saying couldn't connect to host):
#----------------------------------
$> xmms listen.m3u
Message: device: default
** WARNING **: ctrl_write_packet(): Failed to send data: Broken pipe
#----------------------------------
Next, I played the file with mplayer and it worked perfectly:
#----------------------------------
$> mplayer -playlist listen.m3u
#----------------------------------
So, looks like there is a problem with xmms.
