I'm trying to pull up a list of Shoutcast streams in last-night's nightly build. I start VLC, select View->Playlist, then select Manage->ServicesDiscovery->ShoutcastRadioListings.

I immediately get an exception, which Windows graciously offers to send to Microsoft for me

. Looks like a problem in the wxwidgets plugin, not sure what, and I'm not setup to debug it at all on Windows.

The same thing happens with the vlc-0.8.5 release.

Code: Select all

VLC media player has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

If I view the error report, I see:

Code: Select all

Error Signature:
AppName: vlc.exe	 AppVer: 0.8.6.0	 ModName: libwxwidgets_plugin.dll
ModVer: 0.0.0.0	 Offset: 00013529

Is this being actively worked on, or is this a new bug?

Thanks,
-Simon

<UPDATE>
This appears to also be a problem in the Linux version, when accessed via the http interface. Listing Shoutcast streams via the ncurses interface appears to work fine. So far.

I noticed some entries in Trac recently regarding Shoutcast fixes, and indeed tonite's build looks much closer... but not quite there.

Glad to see you folks are working on this, it's a killer feature.

Thanks for all of the great work, VLC is fantastic!

(now if only I can get ogg files/streams working on the Roku

)

Can any of you list ShoutCast streams with VLC?
