hi james, i think i wasn't clear, i want to be able to play streaming mp3s not serve them, i had to play around with plugger4.0 to get links in konqueror to play in anything but xmms but even though i now get gmplayer to play them the page in konqueror also tries to load the m3u link and i get a blank page that requires a 'back' operation to return to the page with the link, when one clicks on a download link the page doesn't change, one just gets a download dialogue, playing streams should be like that, also i failed completely to get notun or any other player to play the streams from the link, it's possible that this was because the site with the links is password protected, in gmplayer you can see the user:pass in the url, but if this is not the case then i'd like to have noatun play these streaming links i've had no success using konquerors file associations and only using plugger4.0 seems to get anything done, i was surprised to see that mplayerplugin lists mp3 as a recognised file type but not m3u, since of course gmplayer will actually play m3u urls, i had hoped that mayber kmplayer woud do as well embedded in konq like its does quicktime etc. but apparently not :( i've tried adding mpegurl, x-mpeg-url to konqueror's file association list with plugger unsinstalled but this didn't work either
