Hi,

I am currently trying to move my squeezecenter from freenas to ubuntu
7.10 server.

I have got squeezecenter installed and running without a hitch but I
just can't get mplayer working for alienbbc.  I have read many of the
posts here that have steps for installing on ubuntu.

Basically I have done the following....

sudo apt-get install mplayer

sudo apt-get install w32codecs

wget
http://www.x2systems.com/alienbbc/alienbbc-linux-v2.00beta5_7.0.tar.gz

and then sudo tar -xvf
http://www.x2systems.com/alienbbc/alienbbc-linux-v2.00beta5_7.0.tar.gz
into the /usr/share/squeezecenter directory

Then chmod -R ugo=wrx /usr/share/squeezecenter/Plugins/Alien

I restart squeezecenter and alien has been added to the web page and I
can browse the stations but when I try to play a stream my squeezebox
just hangs with (CONNECTING).


As a test I went to my freenas box and ran the following command from
the shell mplayer
rtsp://rmlive.bbc.co.uk:554/bbc-rbs/rmlive/ev7/live24/radio4/live/r4_dsat_g2.ra

on the freenas box the stream starts with no problem, when I try the
same command on the ubuntu box I get....

Then after about 2 mins the following....


librtsp: server responds: 'àOPTIONS * RTSP/1.0'

The stream never starts, I think the problem is the mplayer install but
I have no idea what the problem is or how to fix.  I use the gutsy
universe multiverse repositories for mplayer and w32codecs.

Does anyone have any suggestions??
