[MPlayer-dev-eng] MMS Streaming

I am using "mms://mslive.net-36.net/panamsatedge117" as my test stream.  Ok.
I can see that HTTP is needed for MMS encapsulation.  If I do a HTTP stream,
the filesize does get read in right. As for the live MMS stream, it keeps looping
in the asf_stream_start() function after reading in the header. I can see that
the live stream will return a file size of 0 bytes on purpose.

And the MMS live stream will not return EOF (as with a regular ASF file). So,
I can see mplayer will return "no video/audio streams." Looks like mplayer is
looking for EOF before the streams are played.
