similar to: Streaming MP3 issues with Windows Media Player

I would be in the same ballpark as you, Ross. We are looking at icecast2/ices as a replacement for our RealAudio streams, as the licenses we have will expire VERY soon, and we frankly don't have the money to go dump on new ones. We're looking at serving literally thousands of listeners, most of which have RealPlayer installed at home or at work, but have never heard or played with WinAmp,

We're on Icecast 2.4.2 and stream as MP3. ?We want to move to AAC. ?However, we can't get AAC streams to reliably work in Windows Media Player 12, which comes with Windows 7. ?Many of our listeners are on that client. Any tips on getting this to work? We found a stream which works. ?It's http://air.radiorecord.ru:8100/rr_aac. ?Most streams fail though, for example:

Two other players that I am aware of that have Icecast2 issues have been VLC and CoreCodec BetaPlayer. I have been in contact with both developer paths and set up test streams for them in an attempt to get this fixed. CoreCodec is in the process of making the necessary changes. I do not know about VLC. I was never able to get confirmation. -greg. At 09:05 2005-06-08, Karl Heyes wrote:

Greetings all, I've got some questions and news (I think) regarding the Ogg DirectShow filter, and Ogg support in Windows Media Player and the WMP Media Library. The OggDS that's in CVS -- is there any reason it's only at the 0.9.9.3 level and not the 0.9.9.5 level that's on Tobias's webpage? After downloading the 0.995 version and digging through the Windows Media

As I said on http://wiki.xiph.org/ClientSupport I managed to get WMP9 under Windows 2003 to work with OGG vorbis files. Requisite : OggDS 0.9.9.5 - they can be opened with the Open... dialog and WMP does not complain any more that it is an unsupported file format - they can be dragged from explorer into WMP and WMP will play them without any complaint - they can be added to the media library.

Sure: Make a pls file with this in it: [playlist] File1=http://mp31.batanga.com:8000/live Title1=Test Length1=-1 NumberOfEntries=1 Version=2 The version of Real Player: 10.5. I don't hear the problem when listening with itunes or WMP.

i had a similar problem few weeks ago. ices 0.4, icecast 2.2 wmp buffered endless. other players had no problem. solution for me was to explicitly set the type of stream in ices, e.g. "-t http" on the command line or in the config file. uno Karl Heyes: > On Mon, 2005-05-23 at 00:09, Jason wrote: > > I'm having a problem with WMP and icecast 2.2.0.

I was wondering if there is a FLAC plugin for Windows Media Player? Just from doing web-searches, it doesn't look like there is, at least as far as I can tell. So, if there isn't a plug-in for WMP, well, why isn't there? And is there anyone working on one? I'm a programmer, though I've never done any WMP programming. But, I would think it wouldn't be too hard to do a

I was under the impression that Tobias's Direct Show filters would allow Windows Media player to play Ogg Vorbis streams, but after testing it here, apparently it doesn't. Does anyone know if there is anyway of making WMP play vorbis streams? The company I'm involved with who will be creating thousands of internet stations will most likely need WMP to play the streams, since it is

I tested it this morning and here are my findings: 1) The Intro tag causes Real Player to give an error that the stream "contains unexpected data and may be corrupt". It does not play with the Intro tag in the mount point. If I remove the Intro tag the stream plays, and, the Real Player noise caused by meta-data is gone and the meta-data updates work. 2) The Intro plays in iTunes and

I'm having a problem with WMP and icecast 2.2.0. When people try to connect it buffers the feed really slow and people never go get audio. I've tried connecting over the LAN and it does the same thing.

Hello, I am trying to run Windows Media Player 11 on WINE and I cant. This is the only software that I need to be windows free since my university posts the lecture videos in WMP 11 DRM format and I cant view them if I dont have WMP11 installed. It asks for windows genuine verification. Anybody can help? I have wine 1.1.12. Thanks in advance.

Hi, I'm installing Wine for the first time on my Mac through MacPorts. I've been reasonably successful and the application that I wanted to use, a training program, runs almost flawlessly :-) It does ask to use Windows Media Player and I did install WMP9 and this installed fine and the application does play the videos. However, these are thumbnail sized. While this isn't a big deal,
