Is this what you mean? % mkfifo pipe1 % toolame -m s pipe1 foo.mp3 & % mplayer -cache 512 -vc null -vo null -ao pcm:file=pipe1 http://138.25.162.211:8080 It's crashing and burning: ... Connecting to server 138.25.162.211[138.25.162.211]: 8080... ... Starting playback... ... Could not seek to PCM sound data in "pipe1". ... MPlayer interrupted by signal 13 in module: play_audio - MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen. It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.
