You may not believe this but right now I'm listening to a Rush Limbaugh WMA audio stream over broadband with mplayer. The way I do it, you have to have the URL to the WMA stream. Sometimes the Windows media links won't let you have that; but there may be a plugin for the browsers that would get by that problem; I've never tried it tho. The mplayer version I've got here is the one that ships with 9.1, with no modifications or even the windows dll codecs installed. Here's an example command line for mplayer. The following is actually all one line: mplayer -cache 1024 mms://g.vm.akamaistream.net/rushlimb.download.akamai.com/shows/RUSHLIMBWIN20036060.WMA These days there exist annoying java scripts that do alot to hide the real url's of the streams. I know there's a way to extract the url information from the active java script, I just haven't ever had to do that so far because most of the sites I go to don't have that asinine stuff. But still it would be nice to have a method to extract the url info no matter what. Seems like Miark had something like that a while back...got to ask him about that. HTH, and write back if you have further questions. --LX -- 같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같 Kernel 2.4.21-0.13mdk Linux Mandrake 9.1 Enlightenment-0.16.5-12mdk Evolution 1.2.4-1.1mdk Linux User #268899 http://counter.li.org/ 같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같같
