[MPlayer-users] Problem with proxies and playlists

I've been trying a proxy with mplayer and noticed that if a playlist
is used then the proxy is ignored.

This works:

mplayer http_proxy://192.168.1.2:33000/http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_radio4extra_mf_q

This doesn't:

mplayer -playlist http_proxy://192.168.1.2:33000/http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/5/select/version/2.0/mediaset/http-icy-aac-lc-a/format/pls/vpid/bbc_radio_three.pls

Is there any way around this?
