Hi, So Idded some debugging (since Winsock doesn't store things in errno) and recompiled and I now see that the error is a 10054 (WSACONNRESET) aka connection reset by peer. Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening on an mms stream while it is buffering?

Now before I get flamed and told that it's an XBMC problem, just hear me out. I'm perfectly willing to accept that it could be but I figure the people reading this list understand streaming protocols much better than I do so I'm just covering my bases and the code in question is the same in XBMC and in the MPlayer svn. > > Ifou look at stream/asf_mmst_streaming.c > > There's bit there called get_data in which there's a call to recv while trying to fill up the buffer. > >en = recv (s, &buf[total], count-total, 0); > > if (len<=0) { > perror ("readrror:"); > eturn 0; > } > > Now,his happens during the call to > > if (!get_data (s, data, packet_len)) { > mp_msg(MSGT_NETWORK,MSGL_ERR,MSGTR_MPDEMUX_MMST_MediaDataReadFailed); > eturn 0; > } > > in get_media_packet. What I'meing is that it hits the perror. Now, from recv documentation at (http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/recv.html) I gather that recv can return: > > "Uponuccessful completion, recv() shall return the length of the message in bytes.

Otherwise, -1 shall be returned and >rrno set to indicate the error." > > Now Inderstand I'm going to have to recompile this badboy and print out the errno to get more information, but I'm wondering, if the return isn't a negative number and is 0, does this mean that the server on the other end just closed the connection? Has anyone seen similar behaviour with mms streaming? > > Thanks, > Andrew > > _________________________________________________________________ > Life onour PC is safer, easier, and more enjoyable with Windows Vista?. > http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/127032870/direct/01/ > _______________________________________________ >Player-users mailing list >Player-users at mplayerhq.hu > https://lists.mplayerhq.hu/mailman/listinfo/mplayer-users _________________________________________________________________ It?she same Hotmail?.
