Can mplayer handle streaming audio (Internet radio) these days? Didn't realize mplayer had reached that level of capabilities. Great news if true. I've needed to give mplayer a long overdue look anyway. Even in its infancy it looked promising.

Did not know about atomic builtins in 4.1 and later, but I discovered <asm/atomic.h> from the "linux-kernel-headers" package when I was looking for something to "borrow" for use in Helix Player. The asm code there is definitely a kindred spirit to the Tru64 code in the Helix Player "atomicbase.h" file. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bob Tracy WTO + WIPO = DMCA? http://www.anti-dmca.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
