That's not a valid UTF-8, I guess.

BBC asx streams are not working, eg

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r4.asx

or

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r5lsp.asx


Errors :-

Unable to open item for playback (IWMReader::Open failed : Unknown error code (0xC00D0026)):
"http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r4.asx"

Unable to open item for playback (IWMReader::Open failed : Unknown error code (0xC00D0026)):
"http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r5lsp.asx"

Can you confirm if these are also broken asx or if this is a bug, please?

They work in WMP/VLC.

Thanks.

If a stream works without errors in common players, it should be considered as a bug if it doesn't work in foobar. These are web resources, Postel's law applies (within limits). This is utterly annoying for the developers, but the feature is much less useful if it only works on perfectly valid asx files.

Problem triggered by server not returning content-length, fixed for the next update, thanks for reporting.
You can download the ASX file using your web browser, save it then open the saved copy in foobar2000.

Thanks for the update.

There is one problem with recommending removing support for the mslive plugin. Foobar2000 only works on this stream with the mslive plugin:

http://ordorica.org/tune.pl?station=kfi640

The stream is in asx format (wma/mms:). The link is to my script that generates a stream for ClearChannel websites (they want you to use flash).

For now I will just continue to use the mslive plugin.

I added the content type to my script:

Content-type: audio/x-ms-wma

But it made no difference for foobar.

As far as changing the ampersands, I just use a perl script to take clear channel's randomly generated strings and pass it as a simple asx file.

I guess I can regex replace their generated content.. but it works fine with other players and mslive.

I'll do it later, hopefully with a simple regex.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Stream_Redirector:

ASX files have MIME type video/x-ms-asf (as do ASF files).

Thanks for the MS streaming support! As we know from experience (foo_input_mslive) this is a hard task, often due to not standard compliant xml files. From the philosophy of fb2k I know you won't workaround things. Anyway, this one also doesn't work, I think the xml is alright:
http://radiodresden.stream.green.ch/radiodresden.wax

contents:
Code: [Select]
<ASX version = "3.0">
<title>Radio Dresden</title>
<Entry>
    <Ref href = "mms://stream.green.ch/RadioDresden"/>
</Entry>
</ASX>


fb2k output:
Unable to open item for playback (Unsupported file format):
"http://radiodresden.stream.green.ch/radiodresden.wax"

Peter, are you thinking about Realaudio support? Unfortunately there's quite a few real-stuff around, BBC for instance...

Fixed, thanks for reporting.
Temporary workaround: download the .WAX file, rename to .ASX, open.

Tags for MMS streams are not displayed. mslive (or WMP): displayed; foobar: not displayed. Should it be that way?

What kind of tags and not displayed where? Any specific stations where I can see this behavior?

Metadata in mms-streamed wma. Unfortunately, its our local radio, so its impossible for me to give its url to you (only screenshots - it is not really helpful, is it?).
But for example mms://fr1.101.ru/v1_1_128 (mslive at least shows NRJ as artist/title like WMP does, foobar shows nothing). And those on local server in mslive info has that string:
Code: [Select]
<HASSCRIPT> : Yes

P.S. Sorry, if I'm being dense or non-clearly understandable - my English is not too good.

Have no idea if this is helpful.

mms://fr1.101.ru/v1_1_128

Plays for me while showing:
NRJ as %Artist%
NRJ as %Title%.
