So I know it's working on my end (well not from mozilla even with the plugin but from gmplayer it does).

Then I'd get a"Connection refused" or some such message. Oh well. Thanks for your help, Rick.

Make sure that you have the latest version of mplayer (1.0 pre3) and the win32 and real codecs. You can get the codecs and mplayer here - ftp://ftp.easynet.fr/plf/mandrake/9.2/i586/ Also, the mplayer plugin for mozilla (1.0 pre2) will start mplayer from the web page.

[newbie] audio stream: mms: unregisterd protocol
I'm trying to listen to an audio stream on http://www.crienglish.com/radio/index.htm The link to the stream is: mms://218.244.243.30/roundtheclock and the player it wants is Windows Media Player 9 (the "download player" on the front page is the WM9 installer). Is there a way to get this to work with xmms/mplayer/etc? When I click on the link(looks like an'eject' button) I just get an error saying mms: unregistered protocol. I tried using the CLI with mplayer but it didn't work. Any ideas? TIA.
