Hmm, XMMS seems to time out while trying to stream the file... with Amarok it works though (used to be the other way around...) What I did is write a trivial script called amarok-append.sh: #!/bin/sh amarok -a -p "$@" I have configured Firefox to open .m3u files with that script. Their content is appended to the playlist "-a" and then played "-p". I also have the same script for XMMS, but as I said XMMS doesn't work for me either with this link... cheers, Christian
