chris, ALL the information regarding my streaming issue can be viewed from the following link; http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=29835 What's real interesting about this issue, I swear it use to work in version 6.1 or so. Now it's not working again. Plz tell me that it can be fixed in the official 6.5.1 release Thank you
the url in the thread: mmsu://69.43.137.40/jazztrax061119h1.wma corrected to: mms://69.43.137.40/jazztrax061119h1.wma is in the same class covered by bug 3383. marking this as a dupe. please try the workaround given in your own comment #8. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 3383 ***
This is not a dupe of the previously mentioned bug.
Marvin, I asked you to explain HOW this is different, as all evidence thus far shows that this IS an mms only stream, which is exactly what I have explained is not supported.
I need to fix this for 6.5.1. The issue is that even if you enable wmadec transcoding we still give up on mms-only streams because the scanRemoteURL process fails to scan the stream for metadata information, which we don't really care about anyway in wmadec mode.
Fixed in change 10885, please try tomorrow's nightly build.
