BMPX and shoutcast streams

Hello,

I installed BMPX and all the gstreamer0.10 plugins.
For some reason I can't listen to shoutcast streams with the program, the radio library is ok and it adds the streams to the play list but it doesn't play - no buffering no nothing...

I can hear streams fine with the old bmp/xmms.

Also is there a reason why I need to launch bmpx each time with dbus-launch even though I have in my .xinitrc

exec dbus-launch --auto-syntax --exit-with-session openbox 

?

Thanks,
Grey

Re: BMPX and shoutcast streams

I have the exact same problem with BMPX, it just doesn't want to buffer the stream.
Anyone who has an idea why?

Regards,
Simon

Re: BMPX and shoutcast streams

removing gstreamer0.10-neon solves the problem for me. I don't know why it was installed, but it is not needed anyway.
