It'll be used, when you comment that extension=NULL out ... :-(

hm, I liked it, because else you don't even try playlist as types ...

With files it works ok:

mplayer -playlist karen.asx (but karen.asx is in reality a .asf-file)

The file is feeded to the demuxers and recognized as asf file ...

But with the network-code this does not work ...

As I want to use the new "mplayer plugin" (work fairly well) ;-) please fix 
that code asap ...

Extension parsing did make it work, but now (after your commit) it does not 
work at all ...

Please fix it... No one, can use asx-files now (except he dls it to disk and 
does mplayer -playlist bla.asx)

I think network-code should feed it to the demuxers to autodetect the mode 
instead of setting it ...
