Can't open stream

[cloak33]

Hey everyone. I've got a program here that serves up internet music streams. (Sirius) When I select Open Network Stream and paste this in http://127.0.0.1:51710/sirius?channel=34&format=asx I get the following output.

Code: Select all

I notice that towards the end it says it successfully opened the stream but then immediately stops it. A little further down it says its Deleting the Input. Any idea why this isn't working? When I try the exact same URL in Windows Media Player it opens up fine.

Thanks all.

P.S. I removed references from the code containing the actual stream URL as I think it may have my password in there.

I have to imagine I'm missing something simple since it works in WMP.

main debug: EOF reached

I saw that End-Of-File in the log, meaning for some reason the stream is telling VLC to stop playing. Try adding "http-caching=5000" to the command line (for more info, see VLC Man page). That way you can give VLC some time to buffer the stream before getting down and dirty.
