[MPlayer-users] trying to listen to an .asf stream.

[Balatoni Denes]

Hi!

I tried this with -cache 1024, but it buffered some hundred kbytes, but than 
hanged playing at 0.2 sec - using ffmpeg's wma decoder. I also dumpeg 69k 
from it, but only the first 2.5secs were played (it's a 16kbit stream). 

Isn't it a good idea to stream in wma only?

bye
Denes
