[MPlayer-users] Help: Can't play mp3 stream via http

[Andrea]

Hi,

I've tried to play the following mp3 stream

http://france-info1.creacast.com/france-info.mp3
This is not a file but a live stream of a radio.

using mplayer, but it does not work. It returns immediately with "End Of File". (at the end the output).
I did not find anything on google or mplayer documentation about it.

I can download part of it with wget


[andrea at thinkpad tmp]$ wget http://france-info1.creacast.com/france-info.mp3
