I am trying to access the internet audio from nfl.com, but I can't seem to get it to work. This is the url that I am getting from the site:
http://webevents.yahoo.com/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666&sgid=15093 When I try to load it, the message says that it is of video/x-ms-asf format and so I select aviplay to play it. This is from Galeon. Aviplay will then load, it will say openning for a few seconds and then depart. Running it from term produces the following output: ian@minion ian $ aviplay http://webevents.yahoo.com/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666&sgid=15093 [1] 8100 ian@minion ian $ <init> : Avifile CVS--2.95.3 <init> : Available CPU flags: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr syscall mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow <init> : 1100.20 MHz AMD Athlon(tm) Processor detected <aviplay> : Debug is on 0 <reader> : checking: http://webevents.yahoo.com/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666 <InputStream> : Could not open file http://webevents.yahoo.com/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666: No such file or directory <AVI reader> : Stream: http://webevents.yahoo.com/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666 can't be opened! <ASX reader> : Could not open file! <ASF network reader> : server:webevents.yahoo.com:80 filename:/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666 <reader> : successfully opened: http://webevents.yahoo.com/streamlaunch/launch.asp?ei=2666 <ASF network reader> : Redirector <aviplay> : Closing clip <aviplay> : Debug is on 0 <reader> : checking: mms://wmcontent05.broadcast.com/proot2/PubShare07/nfl/49ers/13/3244591. wma?StreamID=3244591&Segment=84513&pl_b=003FFAD04A3FFAD2B8000008D23D691 C73&ru=MozillaMSIE&sg_id=15090&CG_ID=1075090 <InputStream> : Could not open file mms://wmcontent05.broadcast.com/proot2/PubShare07/nfl/49ers/13/3244591. wma?StreamID=3244591&Segment=84513&pl_b=003FFAD04A3FFAD2B8000008D23D691 C73&ru=MozillaMSIE&sg_id=15090&CG_ID=1075090: No such file or directory <AVI reader> : Stream: mms://wmcontent05.broadcast.com/proot2/PubShare07/nfl/49ers/13/3244591. wma?StreamID=3244591&Segment=84513&pl_b=003FFAD04A3FFAD2B8000008D23D691 C73&ru=MozillaMSIE&sg_id=15090&CG_ID=1075090 can't be opened! <ASX reader> : Could not open file! <ASF network reader> : server:wmcontent05.broadcast.com:80 filename:/proot2/PubShare07/nfl/49ers/13/3244591.wma?StreamID=3244591&S egment=84513&pl_b=003FFAD04A3FFAD2B8000008D23D691C73&ru=MozillaMSIE&sg_ id=15090&CG_ID=1075090 <reader> : successfully opened: mms://wmcontent05.broadcast.com/proot2/PubShare07/nfl/49ers/13/3244591. wma?StreamID=3244591&Segment=84513&pl_b=003FFAD04A3FFAD2B8000008D23D691 C73&ru=MozillaMSIE&sg_id=15090&CG_ID=1075090 <ASF network reader> : If you wish to store the stream into a local file you may try to use this before starting aviplay: export WRITE_ASF=1 this will create /tmp/asfXXXXX with received data <ASF reader> : Title : San Francisco 49ers vs. Washington Redskins <ASF reader> : Author : Yahoo!
