This is beginning to look very like the same problem on another forum where another OSX user play BBC stations using Mplayer on an Intel Mac Mini yet the Broswer can play BBC stations.
The following command test different parts of mplayer. * The somafm URL will test that it connects and play simplest of all protocols. * The NPR will test RTSP and Real Audio although I think it will not play because it may need a special codec installed - if it loads the cache that is an adequate test. * The RAI URL uses everything the same as BBC except it is RAI. I think this station is only on during local Italian hours and not late at night so it may be irrelevant mplayer -cache 128 -playlist http://somafm.com/groovesalad56.pls mplayer -cache 128 "rtsp://real.npr.org:80/real.npr.na-central/news.db.rm?v1st=&mt=4" mplayer -cache 128 rtsp://live.media.rai.it/broadcast/radiouno.rm Can you also test whether you can receive BBC using Broswer and RealAudio - if so then no firewall issue. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34847 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
