I recently upgraded my Ubuntu box to Hardy Heron 8.04 and my slimserver
version to the version of Squeezecenter (Version: 7.0.1) available via
the repository. I then successfully installed the newest version of
AlienBBC and confirmed that I can play the standard stations available
under the Internet Radio --> AlienBBC option via Softsqueeze. However,
I am unable to get this WMA radio station
(http://audio.wbaa.purdue.edu/asxgen/wmbroadcast/wbaa-am-hi.asx in
particular) to work via Softsqueeze with the new AlienBBC. This used
to work before the Ubuntu, Slimserver, AlienBBC version upgrades.
Some limited investigative work has revealed the following:
The server.log file shows these entries like this when I try to play
the station.

If I use mplayer to play the station with the following command, it
works fine:
mplayer -vc null -vo null -cache 128 -af
volume=0,resample=44100:0:1,channels=2 -playlist
http://audio.wbaa.purdue.edu/asxgen/wmbroadcast/wbaa-am-hi.asx
I also have the AACPlus plugin installed and it works fine for AAC+
stations so I am a little perplexed on this one.
Anyone have any suggestions on what to try to make WMA streams,
Softsqueeze, and Squeezecenter happy again?
