Hi -- I just saw your reported bug about mplayer and I tried opening the url in a terminal as you specified:
$ mplayer rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk:554/radio4fmcoyopa/radio_4_fm_-_tuesday_1656.ra and it works on my machine. (Funny -- I was looking at bugs like yours because mplayer crashes on this machine when I click the icon. But now I believe I know why.) There are other packages that are installed at the same time as mplayer that could have caused the crash. I would suggest you might try reinstalling mplayer and/or make sure it has what it needs to decode RealAudio streams. I briefly had the Medibuntu repository on this system and it could be that an updated package came from there. You might have a look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu and see if you want to try using it. (By the way, the earlier comments about your bug report were because you accidentally collected data for the terminal program itself and not the mplayer program. If you open mplayer and use System Monitor you can find the process ID of mplayer while it is running. Then you can use apport- bug <ID> to collect the data from mplayer. Some Ubuntu-supported apps include a "Report a Problem" item in the Help menu that does the collection in one step, but neither mplayer nor gnome-mplayer does.) -- player won't play bbc radio listen again programmes https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/501196 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
