Hi

I am using mplayer v1.0pre7, though I aloso tried from CVS with no difference.
I have already compiled and installed vstream-client-1.2.tar.gz

When I open a tvio://some_fsid URL I see:

 -->
TiVo file format detected.
VIDEO:  MPEG2  352x576  (aspect 2)  25.000 fps  2600.0 kbps (325.0 kbyte/s)
==========================================================================
Opening audio decoder: [pcm] Uncompressed PCM audio decoder

MPlayer interrupted by signal 11 in module: init_audio_codec
- MPlayer crashed by bad usage of CPU/FPU/RAM.
  Recompile MPlayer with --enable-debug and make a 'gdb' backtrace and
  disassembly. Details in DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports_what.html#bugreports_crash.
- MPlayer crashed. This shouldn't happen.
  It can be a bug in the MPlayer code _or_ in your drivers _or_ in your
  gcc version. If you think it's MPlayer's fault, please read
  DOCS/HTML/en/bugreports.html and follow the instructions there. We can't and
  won't help unless you provide this information when reporting a possible bug.

Note the audio type - it tries pcm.  It should say something like

-->
Playing /home/TiVo/file.ty.

and indeed it does when playing a local .ty file, just not when
streaming directly from the TiVo.

I also compiled with debug and can give a backtrace

#0  init (sh_audio=0x8752028) at ad_pcm.c:23
#1  0x080ef9c5 in init_audio_codec (sh_audio=0x8752028) at dec_audio.c:88
#2  0x080efcb6 in init_audio (sh_audio=0x8752028, codecname=0x0, afm=0x0,

#4  0x08082010 in main (argc=2, argv=0xbffff804) at mplayer.c:1968

(This is from CVS version pulled just a few minutes ago).

Ideas?

Kevin
