Using the 1.0.4 versions of the FLAC decoder plugin for both XMMS (under Linux and FreeBSD) and WinAMP (under Win2k and WinXP) I can't get streaming to work from a web server.
Has anyone actually done it or seen it done? If so, do you have a URL I can look at? I have tried setting my web server's MIME type for served flac files to both audio/flac and audio/x-flac. I am not using a web browser, I am simply opening the URL directly from within XMMS or WinAMP, so the question of web browser configuration is eliminated. With XMMS, the player just repeatedly tries to pre-buffer data but never actually plays any sound. With WinAMP, I get an error dialog that says "invalid/missing FLAC metadata" when I try to add the URL to my playlist. My guess is that the plugin only knows how to read the mandatory STREAMINFO metadata block from a filesystem and fails when the data is streaming in via a TCP socket. Any help would be appreciated. -Mark ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: Thawte.com - A 128-bit supercerts will allow you to extend the highest allowed 128 bit encryption to all your clients even if they use browsers that are limited to 40 bit encryption.
