As I wrote in the first mail: when you connect to a file with the 
http_proxy, and the file redirect you to another file, then mplayer does not 
use the http_proxy. So you have to find out which address the first file 
were redirecting you to, and then run mplayer once more with http_proxy and 
the address of the second file...
So there is nothing wrong you could say, it is just _very_ annoying!!!
