Hi I have s question, concerning -playlist option in mplayer.

when I type mplayer -playlist http://test.com/test.asx the online stream is playing, but if I add http://test.com/test.asx it doesn't work.

the asx file contains something like this:

<ASX version = "3.0">
<TITLE>test broadcast</TITLE>
<ENTRY>
<TITLE>test live (720x576)</TITLE>
<AUTHOR>test</AUTHOR>
<COPYRIGHT>test</COPYRIGHT>
<REF HREF = "http://test.com/test.asf" />
</ENTRY>
</ASX>

if I try http://test.com/test.asf in rulesPlayer it's working. I want to know if there's some way to make rulesPlayer play http://test.com/test.asx, just with a click on the link (without the need to open the asx file and to copy/paste the asf link in rulesPlayer)

No way currently. I will have to write an ASX parser and extact the filenames from there... I will add it to the todo list.

I have hit this problem as well

I tried adding -playlist via mp_more in console trying to get the mplayer command to read :

mplayer <mp_params> -playlist <URL>

However the actual command generated is :

mplayer <mp_params> -playlist <lots of other settings> <URL>

So I can't get around the problem that way Crying or Very sad

Rather than write some code in rulesPlayer to read the various playlist files (m3u, pls, asx, ram etc) how about allowing for a tick box in the URL dialogue to add -playlist infront of it or look at the URL in rulesPlayer code and if its a playlist extension add -playlist when building the mplayer command in rulesPlayer. This code would be a lot easier I suspect and would need no changes to handle different playlist formats

Just an idea.......

Actually I never looked into the mplayer playlist features. I knew what I want from my playlist (winamp 2.9x behavior) and I knew how to do it, so I never messed up with mplayer's playlist. Maybe it is a good idea, but I don't have the time right now to work on the player...
