Hi Adam, Here is another one: http://radio.cbc.ca/stream/aka-radioone28.ram I have a collection of nearly 200 audio streams and after upgrading mplayer to 1.0pre6, I went through the list and attempted to replace all my trplayer invocations with mplayer, some with and some without the -playlist option, and about 80 or 90 percent of them made the swithc okay. But a few stubborn ones would not work. Maybe my codecs are not current, not sure how long I have had them there.
