Description Cyrill Helg 2006-09-21 19:23:20 UTC
Version:           1.4.3 (using KDE 3.5.4, Gentoo)
Compiler:          Target: i686-pc-linux-gnu
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.17-emission8-IBM-T43

When I try to listen to the following url: http://dms-cl-016.skypro-media.net/top-128?MSWMExt=.asf
amarok gives a strange error about no audio buffers available.

When I change the URI to mmsh://dms-cl-016.skypro-media.net/top-128?MSWMExt=.asf (which I got from mplayer/xine) amarok can play the stream.

I think that amarok should handle the http adress correctly too as mplayer or xine do.

Thanks for your work!

I can confirm this. Changing http:// to mms:// makes amarok play that file. But isn't that a xine bug?

The same problems is the case for mms://livemedia2.omroep.nl/radio3-breed
When using mms://livemedia2.omroep.nl/radio3-breed?MSWMExt=.asf
the stream works.
I propose that amarok automatically tries to add '?MSWMExt=.asf'
