  The patches are committed and I hope everything is working well
for you.

  If you need support for longer filenames the buffer size can of
course be increased. I was just kind of unsure how big the it
should be and settled for a rather moderate size, but as Reimar
noted it is probably still enough for most typical operating
environments.

  I already have something done and will send it as soon as it
is ready. As you seem to be using playback from ftp quite often.
Your testing is appreciated now and when the next patch series
goes in.
