Version: (using KDE KDE 3.4.2) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Wished feature from Amarok wish : http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=115822 Would it be possible for KIO to support streaming over remote interfaces ?
Erm, I assume you mean seeking, right?
Yes, I mean seeking. Currently it seems you can't skip the beginning of the audio file and go directly to the 15th minute of a M3U streaming file.
Changing the summary to better reflect it is a with.
This has been requested before. See bug #72302 It was determined that seeking could be implemented using existing calls, though the solution is not super streamlined.

Hi folks, Wasn't this implemented ages ago? If so we could close this bug. :)
No, not that I know of. You can do gets with a starting point into the files with HTML slaves but it is very cumbersome and it doesn't work for other kinds of slaves. Please see #72302.
You can do random seeking on files in KDE4 using the FileJob class: http://api.kde.org/4.0-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kio/html/classKIO_1_1FileJob.html This is a relatively new feature, and currently only Phonon is using it: http://lxr.kde.org/ident?i=FileJob
Yep, carewolf implemented this for kde4.
