I figured that rather than start a bunch of threads, we could keep the bug reports in one. I can't seem to get streaming going. I had it working in beta3, but now no joy. I installed streamtuner and streamripper from the hemocom feed. Streamripper required libcurl, so I installed curl from the default repository. Streamtuner seems to run fine. By default, it calls mplayer for m3u's and pls's. Mplayer runs (in two xvt windows, maybe need to remove the rxvt from the default streamtuner command line) and caches the site, plays for about a second and then exits. I tried vlc and gmplayer instead. vlc had the same behavior as mplayer. Gmplayer wouldn't play it. I closed streamtuner, opened FF and surfed to the icecast directory. I clicked on an ogg station and selected vlc as my helper app and it also player for a second and then hung.
I had streamtuner working great with mplayer under beta3. Am I missing a required library or something? Does mplayer (or vlc) generate a log somewhere that might tell what is happening?
