[SOLVED]Problem with asx streams in Amarok

Actually, with one radio station in particular. This one doesn't work

It works fine in mplayer, but amarok claims there's no audio channel.

Okay, I struggled with this for days and of course I solved it within seconds of posting it...

If anyone else has trouble with playing asx files in Amarok, just open a terminal and type

wget <url-of-stream.asx>

Open it with nano, and look for the real url. Sometimes it'll work right away, sometimes you'll have to replace the http:// with mms://
