I don't know if that's the case but, is the stream supposed to be multicast?
AFAIK mplayer can't handle multicast streams (at least 1.0pre2 can't), and
that would mean it wouldn't play. Just for testing purposes try playing with
another player in linux, I've had good experience with VLC and WMServer
multicast streams under linux.
