[MPlayer-users] Quicktime rstp stream

[Hans du Plooy]

Hi guys,

I just compiled an up-to-date (as of 10 minutes ago) SVN of MPlayer on
Debian Etch i386, with just about everything I could enable in terms of
codec support. I'm  still having trouble playing this:

rtsp://a2047.v1409b.c1409.g.vq.akamaistream.net/5/2047/1409/1_pt2_350/1a1a1ae252c22e93fe63dc4ab92d92c024930a78e453b41846a71273e041aad83baa174677abdb14/sub8848125_2_350.mov

I'm getting this:

And then it just sits there.  If I add a -v, the last message I get is:

Can anyone else play this?  Can't do it with VLC (I get sound but no
video) or Xine either.

Thanks
