Not able to open RTSP or .asx files since Upgrading Ubuntu

[morrie20]

I used to be able to use VLC to play streaming links like http://www.blueletterbible.org/audio_vi ... /W3001.asx

As you will see it downloads an ASX file which I used to be able to double click on to play the streaming media. If you actually download the above file, you'd see that it's just a wrapper for streamed audio via rtsp/wma

<ASX Version = "3.0">
<ENTRY>
<TITLE>Genesis 1</TITLE>
<REF HREF = "rtsp://stream.blueletterbible.org/courson_jon/Gen/W3001.wma" />
<AUTHOR>Jon Courson</AUTHOR>
</ENTRY>
</ASX>

In older versions of Ubuntu, I could play the asx file & could paste the above URL into the open network stream in VLC and successfully listen to the stream.

Now since I've upgraded to Ubuntu 13.10 where the medibuntu package is no longer maintained, I cannot listen on VLC, Totem, or any other player for that matter. If I open VLC from the terminal I get the following report:[0xb5307248] live555 demux error: Broken packet detected (300 vs 0 or 300 + 628 vs 631)

Can anyone help?
