playing online radio

[T o n g <mlist4suntong@yahoo.com>]

Hi,

Anyone know if there is a switch for mplayer to be more tolerant for 
online radio? This is what I get:

$ mplayer 'http://mfile.akamai.com/80871/live/reflector:20168.asx?
bkup=20883&prop=n'
Connecting to server localhost[127.0.0.1]: 3128...
Cache size set to 320 KBytes
Cache fill:  0.08% (270 bytes)   
Exiting... (End of file)

However, if I paste that url to firefox, the mplayer plugin plays it just 
fine. 

Any hints?

Thanks
