Certain shoutcast (listen.pls) streams not working

Postby handy » 20 Apr 2010 09:50

I have the following stream which does not work on vlc (and cvlc) http://dhc.uber1337.nl:8800/listen.pls. For now I found out
that:

Not working:
  • VLC 1.1.0 (linux)
    VLC 1.0.5 (windows)
Works on:
  • Mplayer (linux)
    Xine (linux)
    Winamp (windows)
    Gstreamer (linux)
    Itunes (mac)
On the server access log I see:

Code: Select all

<04/20/10@09:06:51> [dest: 193.138.XXX.XXX] starting stream (UID: 94340)[L: 4]{A: vlc 1.1.0-pre2}(P: 4) <04/20/10@09:07:39> [dest: 193.138.XXX.XXX] connection closed (62 seconds) (UID: 94339)[L: 3]{Bytes: 0}(P: 3)
And as you can see the Bytes stay at zero.

Debug lines:

Code: Select all
