Hi Alan, Try this instead: mplayer -playlist http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/avdb/news/world/video/98000/bb/98711_16x9_bb.ram Alternatively, download the ram file: wget http://news.bbc.co.uk/media/avdb/news/world/video/98000/bb/98711_16x9_bb.ram And try mplayer'ing the filename inside it: mplayer rtsp://rmgeo.bbc.net.uk/news/media_acl/mps/fix/news/world/video/98000/bb/98711_16x9_bb.rm Kris -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
