Re: Radio Live Streams: working links?
 

bac522,
you,r a genious! mplayer via xterm plays mms and rtsp links!
i wrote some xterm command lines with links in maemopad+ now so ican paste those into xterm on the fly.
thanks again, karl.

Re: Radio Live Streams: working links?
 

Thanks for the compliment, glad it works for you. This was something I learn from being HTPC buff which my HTPC is based on linux, so when mplayer got ported over to the IT I discovered that you could play Internet streams the exact same way.

I wondering if there is a way to configure opera so that it just calls mplayer instead of nokia's player for any internet stream...hhhhhmmmmm...have to look into that one further.

Re: Radio Live Streams: working links?
 

YES, PLEASE! Calling of applications upon type by the Browser should be configurable, somwhere... In windows I would find the quickly, but I am not into Linux at all, sorry...
Another thought: there are some GUIS and SKINS for Mplayer, are those also ported to IT or do we have to rebuild the Mplayer install file with the GUI included?

audioworld & bac522,

I've tried the xtrem/mplayer method on two stations, one is a mms stream and the other is a rm stream, using the suggested command in osso-xterm. I couldn't get either of them to work.

For the first stream (mplayer -vo null -cache 256 -playlist rtsp://mrbi.live79.com/kmrb), I received the following error message: STREAM_LIVE555, URL: rtsp://mrbi.live79.com/kmrb
Segmentation fault.

For the second stream (rtsp://rthk4.rthk.org.hk/redundant/radio1.rm), everything seems to work:
Connecting to server rthk4.rthk.org.hk[59.188.18.228]: 554...
Cache size to 256 KByts.

Re: Radio Live Streams: working links?
 

I can get mplayer to play an RTSP, but I am wondering what friendly front end there might be... for example, I've been creating m3u's with shotucast streams that the built-in audio player will play. but, it won't do .ram files... .e.g

#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,BBC News
#http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/me...5min_au_nb.ram
rtsp://rmv8.bbc.net.uk/worldservice/summary5min.ra?BBC-UID=b457b5c4d9539f8eece6484df0402a69a6baca8db08020 639bda7f3d8c267cdd_n&SS

if I feed the rtsp to mplayer using the command line, it will play, but built-in won't touch either of the above, kmplayer will read the .ram, find the rtsp but not play!

thanks for any ideas
Paul
