If I add the URL http://rki.kbs.co.kr//src/asx/rki_asx.php?m_name=onair&file_name=&title=2005-03-19&date=2005-03-19&lang=g&starttime=&endtime=&info=, the result is not playing but more or less an endless loop. Kaffeine has no problems with this URL. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.
If you need a current URL (don't think that these URLs are valid for a long time), just drop a note ...
Yeah, I need a current URL. I'm seeing it just skip to another track.
Here it is: http://rki.kbs.co.kr/src/asx/rki_asx.php?m_name=onair&file_name=&title=2005-04-01&date=2005-04-01&lang=g&starttime=&endtime=&info=
Ah. The URL is an ASX playlist, and while xfmedia knows how to parse those, it doesn't know how to detect them if the URL doesn't end in ASX. If you save that URL to disk as something like test.asx and open that, it works. This is essentially a dupe of #637. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 637 ***
It worked in the past ...
If this used to work, then this is probably a xine-lib bug. If I try to load your URL directly (it's an ASX playlist, but the server returns a content type of video/x-ms-asf), xine_open() returns TRUE, so I have no idea that it even fails. I played around with some inline playlist parsing, and I can get e.g. shoutcast.com to work, as xine_open() returns FALSE when I try to open a URL from shoutcast (they're .pls playlists).
Let's reopen until I figure out why xine_open() thinks this URL is ok...
Same deal with the other bug I just closed: xine_open() returns 1, and xine_play() returns 1. There's no way I can tell that playing the URL directly fails.
