However, the same link > works fine with windows media player When the address isn't the music data stream, itself, but a meta link (asx, m3u, pls), use the playlist option. Then mplayer reads the meta data, and gets the stream referenced by it. The link works here, when I use the playlist option: mplayer -playlist http://www.radiotunisienne.tn/popup/rtci.asx However, it did need to take 15-25 seconds filling the cache up, first. There's on-screen text telling you this, so you don't have to play guessing games. > Couldn't resolve name for AF_INET6: www.radiotunisienne.tn If your network can't support IPv6, then you can set options so that mplayer doesn't attempt to use it, first. Otherwise, it'll try IPv6 before IPv4, and if it gets snagged with an IPv6 problem, it may not get unsnagged. I've seen that happen. But, mostly, it just speeds up the process of attempting to connect, by not trying something that's not going to work. -prefer-ipv4 (network only) Use IPv4 on network connections. Falls back on IPv6 automatically. So, you could try this: mplayer -prefer-ipv4 -playlist http://www.radiotunisienne.tn/popup/rtci.asx -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
