[MPlayer-users] Unable to play streaming video?

[Rocco van der Veer]

I am a Linux Beginner, and I am setting up a Linux system for a customer
of mine. The possibility of using (or not using) Linus rests on one
thing, the Linux OS, (Mplayer) should be able to play streaming video on
a certain URL.

Mplayer works on my system, and I can open quite a few links containing
streaming video, apart from this URL:
http://www.imb.org/videolink/viewer.asp?speed=cable&ProgKey=971.

The player does not even recognize the Link and does not open the video.
When using Win Mediaplayer, no problem.

Any ideas, suggestions??/

With regards,
