This plays my local classical music/leftist propaganda radio station: aviplay mms://pubint.wm.llnwd.net/pubint_wwno & Note that mozilla-mplayer also wants to play RealPlayer streams, so having it (a plugin) and the RP10 plugin both at the same time is a bit squirrely. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson, LA USA PGP Key ID 8834C06B I prefer encrypted mail.
