If the output gets as far as being not empty, then this isn't the complete  
and uncut console output :-)

OK, that's a fairly recent ffmpeg.  I'm not familiar with ffmpeg's  
handling of m3u playlists, so I can only repeat my guess that something is  
trying to do a seek on the stream, which won't work because streams aren't  
seekable.  Unfortunately I'm not going to have time in the near future to  
go digging in the source code, so I'm going to have to hand you over to  
someone more knowledgeable.

Anyone?
