[linux-audio-user] cannot get mplayer to resume an interrupted stream

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



hi all,

i use mplayer to successfully play an ".asx" stream [internet radio
broadcast]. but i have every few hours a short interruption in my
internet connection, upto about 10 secs. network connection is
automatically restored. 

after each interruption in the stream mplayer's cache goes empty, so
even with the huge default cache of 8192KB (> 1min audio) i end up
having to quit and restart mplayer.

1) is there any way to get mplayer to try to retry/reconnect after it
detects an interrupt in the media stream?

2) is there any other program that can play .asx streams and will
survive these temporary interuptions of the stream (with caching)?

cau, ALEX
