The problem is that the current (primitive) code waits forever to detect a video packet to know its PID. Audio-only streams are not yet really supported. One workaround is to mix in some video dummy stream, another is to fool the detection: If you first play a short video clip, and then start the audio stream, streamplayer already has found a PID for video and continues playing even if no video data arrives. This should work even if the http stream reconnects, just exiting and re-starting streamplayer will trigger a new detection. Cheers, Udo
