This is a xine problem, not an Amarok problem. FWIW, RealPlayer can handle the URL, so the Helix engine may play it correctly. Ok, I will open a bug with Xine. But even if it is a xine problem, Amarok *CRASHES*. Is there anyway to handle this error more gracefully, like putting up that little yellow error message popup, saying this stream is not playable. Is it possible? Feedback appreciated. thanks I think this is a bug in Amarok and Xine, mainly Amarok though. AFAIK is the playlist handling done by the frontend (i.e. Amarok), so Amarok doesn't detect the URL as a stream and just forwards it to xinelib hoping it's a music stream xinelib can handle. I guess xine then also doesn't recognize it for some reason as a playlist and of course can't play it since it's not a music stream. This means first fault is made by Amarok, second by xine. I gotta check back with my very favorite xine dev though ^_^ opened a bug report on xine : http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1758711&group_id=9655&atid=109655 Harald, could you please confirm and re-open this bug if necessary. Thanks! |
