[Live-devel] End-of-file issues with Realaudio files via rtsp

[Jesse F. Hughes]

Hey ho.

I'm not sure if this is an rtsp or mplayer issue.  Let me know if this
is the wrong list.

When I play a ".rm" file, mplayer hangs at the end of the stream (or,
if the stream is small enough, while caching it).  Even "q" for quit
doesn't work -- I have to use control-c to break out of the program.

Here's a sample stream which hangs.  Note: I use -nocache because this
stream is very small -- much smaller than 640K.  

 ./mplayer -nocache -v  rtsp://real.npr.na-central.speedera.net/real.npr.na-central/me/20031205_me_03m1.rm

Any ideas what's up?  Where can I find some sample non-realaudio
streams to see if this is really a realaudio issue?

Thanks.  By the way, I was glad to see that this Ross Finlayson is not
*that* Ross Finlayson.  The idea that the sci.math guy has any
competence at all was a little too much for my worldview.
