[MPlayer-users] More Real audio -

[Ketil Thorgersen]

Hi

I've searched the archives for solutions on my problems regarding some 
real audio streams, but found no satisfying answers so I am posting instead.

First - so that it is said: This is on a ubuntu edgy box where I've 
tried the official ubuntu mplayer, the rc1 from source and finally the 
latest subversion snapshop from source. The same problem for everyone of 
them a few real audio streams doesn't play while most do such as the 
ones from BBC.

The stream I really want to play (in order to dump btw) is: 
http://www.wbez.org/audio_library/ram/od/od_020424.ram

It works without a hitch in real player, but mplayer (or vlc or Xine for 
that matter - but I prefer mplayer and write my script for that so 
that's why I am posting here) gives this output to the command:

mplayer -v http://www.wbez.org/audio_library/ram/od/od_020424.ram
