mplayer mms stream trouble

Hello guys,

I can't play a mms stream with mplayer. I only receive the following error message:

Resolving media01.euv-frankfurt-o.de for AF_INET6...
Couldn't resolve name for AF_INET6: media01.euv-frankfurt-o.de
Resolving media01.euv-frankfurt-o.de for AF_INET...
Connecting to server media01.euv-frankfurt-o.de[193.174.122.90]: 80...

This is the url to the stream.

Could it be because I have to log in on the web page of my university to see the stream url?

Regards

Did you try vlc instead of mplayer? The stream is using Windows codecs asf/wmv so that may be the reason you can't listen to it.

You need only to edit ~/.mplayer/config by adding this line:

prefer-ipv4 = yes

@n0dix
I still can't get it to work.

Install https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/446 and go to the webpage with the video

Hello guys,

the entry in config doesn't work here either. But I'll have a look at the firefox addon. Further suggestions are still welcome.
