EEEEEEEEK
I found this somewhere in forum , winamp5 cant play mms
http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?threadid=162477 QUOTE Oh if only you knew the amount of times I've reported this You see, in Winamp 2.81 and earlier, in_wm.dll used to handle all mms:// streams, and the trick you referred to above used to work, because adding the "/.wma" to the end of the url told in_wm.dll to handle the stream. However, as from v2.90, in_dshow now handles all mms:// streams. Now iirc, in v2.90 this was working for some if not most streams, but somewhere inbetween v2.91 and v5.x, this became broken. It looks like in_dshow is handling everything, ie. the stream url is recognized and begins to buffer up to 100%, but it never goes any further, and just seems to get stuck in an endless buffering loop. Yes, I agree, this needs fixing asap. One less reason for people to still use WMP... What I haven't tried is to temporarily disable in_dshow.dll and re-enable the old in_wm.dll just to see if the old trick still works... It probably will work, but I'm sure we all agree that we don't want to have to do this everytime we want to listen to an mms:// stream. |

It's already a known issue and referenced in the Known Bugs thread.
Alas, it is not feasible to sticky every known issue. Look out for a new thread in TSGH soon which will list the most common Winamp 5.x issues. btw, the bug only affects extensionless mms:// streams ie. mms:// streams which don't specify a filename and extension at the end of the url Note how in this example, the mms:// stream plays ok in Winamp. mms://62.207.138.223/video_archivio/do_heaven.asf <<-- plays fine in WA5 Also, the old workaround still works for some mms:// streams, but only if the stream also supports tcp protocol, eg. you can replace mms:// with http:// and still add /.wma to the end of the url to make in_wm.dll handle the stream. Alas, your particular stream does not support tcp protocol If it did, then you could specify the url to be: http://streampower.belgacom.be/stubruhigh/.wma and this would work (but, as I said, doesn't work in this case). If you remove in_dshow.dll entirely, then in_wm.dll will again be the default mms:// handler, and mms://streampower.belgacom.be/stubruhigh/.wma would work again. What a carry on, eh ?! |

I'd just like to confirm that uninstalling in_dshow.dll does indeed work
![]() Anyway, i'm listening to mms://streampower.belgacom.be/stubruhigh/.wma from Winamp 5.05 now ![]() |
