mplayer, eh? Can it do STREAMING .ASF, for all those sites that only stream
Windows Media Player format? I don't mean download a .ASF file, and then
play it when it's completely transferred; I mean real-time streaming (like
we can with RealPlayer)?

Strangely enough, I got mplayer to play wmv files,
but then in the terminal window it tells me:
"asf format detected" so maybe there are more
than one kind of wmv files?

On Monday 10 September 2001 12:15 am, so spoke Mark:
