There is a radio station I like to listen to over the internet. Generally one would use windows media player.

When I browse the site through microb, click listen live, a new window opens, I click play, Media Player opens and the station name appears under Now playing. There is no sound however.

When I click the play button, it errors: ( i ) Media Stream not found at given address.

The address is valid, and tested live while trying it on the N800.

How could I go about getting this to play?
Or request compatibility? / enhancement?

Thanks in advance

Try opening the asx file in your text editor. In it you will find a URL. Start mplayer from xterm, passing it this url. e.g. 'mplayer mms://some.server.net/radio'

Not as familiar with linux/Unix as I was 20 years ago, anyway to make a shortcut on the D/T for this?
