Network Error Message

Postby RKW » 23 Aug 2005 03:25

I have a Mac with OS 10.3.9. After I paste a radio station URL in the HTTP/FTP/MMS blank in the Open Source window and click OK, I receive the error message, "no suitable access module". Any ideas as to what this means :?:

Could you post the URL here? We will have a look at it then (it doesn't have to be publically accessible, just the syntax matters)

I didn't post the original, but I get the same error message for the following stream:

mms://62.2.26.94/livestream

I first thought, it was a problem with my firewall. but it works for mms://stream1.orf.at/fm4_live

any ideas?

PS: it's version 0.8.2 with OS 10.4.2

This URL "www.abacast.com/media/pls/kplu/kplu-sc-48.pls" worked for the first few times, then I received the error message "no suitable access module" and now nothing happens whatsoever when the URL is entered. I don't know if this sheds any more light on the problem

The first URL doesn't work, because it produces a server error as you can see in the resulting error-message:
access_mms: failed to send command
access_mms: failed to open a connection (udp)
access_mms: cannot connect to server
access_mms: error: HTTP/1.0 400 Bad Request
main: no suitable access module for `mms://62.2.26.94/livestream '

or:
access_mms: error while asking for file -1
access_mms: failed to open a connection (udp)
access_mms: cannot connect to server
access_mms: cannot connect to 62.2.26.94:80
main: no suitable access module for `mms://62.2.26.94/livestream'

Probably, it's a server issue, but I cannot say that for sure. Since my Windows Media Player cannot connect to the streams as well, that's probably the source of the problem.

Perhaps another VideoLAN-member got an idea?

I'm on OSX 10.4.2 as well btw.

I trashed the original download and downloaded the program a second time. It now works fine. Thanks for your help
