Colors look fine for me in xine -- same quality as on a windoze box it seems to 
my eye.

Thanks,
Luke

Hmmm...anyone else use gxine? I tested out xine and it works but for some 
reason gxine just hangs...oh well, I don't really care...but the colors are all 
funky, it is either lacking some color or the blue tint is way too much...i 
played with some settings for xine but didn't fix it...

Luke, did you have color problems?

I thought I had tried xine earlier.  Guess not correctly as it works now.

xine -playlist http://byutv.org/streaming/byutv250b.asx

xine is the key and it appears that Amarok is using it in this case (or at 
least the xine libs).  Now to figure out how to stream the video to 
save/transcode for later.  Gonna read up on that and maybe write a mythtv 
plugin (although I am sure there are such already to adapt...).  Will want to 
correlate from the schedule on the web....  The adventure continues.

Anyone know if there are any python bindings to the xine libraries?  I see 
pyxine but it looks like a defunct project.

Thanks!

Amarok is an audio player. I use it and like it. That'd be why you don't
get the video. I can say that amarok uses a backend that you can
specify. I know that xine is one choice, and I can't remember if there
is another one (currently), and if there is, what it would be.

Try playing the video stream through xine instead of mplayer.
