[MPlayer-users] 1.0pre8-3.4.2: Windows streaming: size confirm mismatch while parsing chunk header

[Georg Berger]

Hi everyone,

mplayer is an ingenious piece of software. And I understand that it takes a lot of tuning for all different devices, protocols and data sources.
Nevertheless I bumped into the above error, changing command line parameters did not help. It displayed with an elder version, but that one crashed because it ate up all memory. The stream plays perfectly with "Windows Media Player".
Can someone give an advice how to make it possible receiving the stream? Thanks in advance!

Here is the logfile: Windows XP-Version
command line:
C:\Programme\mplayer\mplayer.exe -slave -identify -wid 393700 -colorkey
0x101010 -nokeepaspect -framedrop -autosync 100 -vf screenshot -font
C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\Arial.ttf -priority abovenormal -ao dsound:device=0
-autoq 10 -vf-add pp http://www.ramtha.com/ramthatv/asx/create_lg.asx
