> Hello,

> I am currently using MPlayer to play a video stream from a HTTP source.
> This HTTP source is created on my own. It is a video capture stream from
> a video game. I basically capture the video, encode it into a video,
> then stream it out as HTTP via FFmpeg.
>
> MPlayer works for most of the games I have tried, but in one specific
> situation*, MPlayer is not able to display anything. It manages to
> connect, but then it gets stuck here indefinitely:
>
> "libavformat version 57.72.101 (internal)
> Stream not seekable!
> H264-ES file format detected"
>
> *This specific situation is if I launch the game to the main menu, it
> fails to play the video. If I skip the main menu and launch directly
> into the game level, it works. If I use another game, it also works.
>
> I have tried using ffplay, as well as outputting the video locally. They
> both work fine. MPlayer also manages to play the locally output video.
> It just refuses to play the HTTP stream.
>
> The MPlayer command I am using is this:
> mplayer -quiet -vo gl -nosound -benchmark http://address:port
>
> I have tried many other commands as well, none of them worked:
> mplayer http://address:port
> mplayer -fps 30 -vo gl -nosound -benchmark http://address:port
> mplayer -fps 30 -screenw 720 -screenh 1280 -vo gl -nosound -benchmark
> http://address:port
> mplayer -fps 30 -vo directx -nosound -benchmark http://address:port
> mplayer -fps 30 -vo null -nosound -benchmark http://address:port
>
> One more strange quirk is that MPlayer does succeed in playing the video
> in very rare occasions. I would place the chances of succeeding at about
> once every 15-20 tries.
>
> This is extremely strange, so I am wondering if anyone has an idea why
> this happens.
