[MPlayer-users] End of stream detection ? broken?

I'm having a trouble with this: mplayer -dumpstream -dumpfile _40386563_mol.rm \\ pnm://rm.bbc.net.uk/news/media/audio/40386000/rm/_40386563_mol.rm (version 1.0pre6) both linux and win32 What happens is that the stream downloads until the very end, when it hangs for a minute or two, then .... input_pnm: read error .... scrolls past, occasionally with a percentage. The save file then grows rapidly without limit until the file system is full. Using mplayer -ao pcm -aofile .... etc shows exactly the same behaviour. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Thanks, Michael
