When trying to open the URL http://193.121.55.235/wm/stream_HI.asx with
mplayer, I get this:
[...]
Connecting to server 193.121.55.235[193.121.55.235]:80 ...
size_confirm mismatch!: 22611 28271
Error while parsing chunk header
Unknown protocol: http
asf_streaming_start failed
Unable to open URL: http://193.121.55.235/wm/stream_HI.asx
Option stream url: This URL doesn't have a hostname part.
File not found: 'wm/stream_HI.asx'
Failed to open http://193.121.55.235/wm/stream_HI.asx

The file really exists, you can download it with wget...

I'm using mplayer-1.0-0.pre3 (comiled binaries for Mandrake Cooker from
PLF).

Where should problems with mplayer be reported?
