can't play hirtv.asf from www.hirtv.hu

[balazs.konya@…]

hi,

Mplayer fails to play the hirtv.asf from www.hirtv.hu.

I have the
MPlayer 1.0pre6-3.4.1 (C) 2000-2004 MPlayer Team
version installed and capable playing some other .asf formats,
for example

mplayer -playlist ​http://w3.cantos.com/04/ebrd-403-4m5xf/video/ebrd-h001-nb-v-1.asx

works just fine.

But mplayer fails against the hirtv site (see below).

The problem is that the asf stream header (denoted by the {0x91, 0x07, 0xdc, 0xb7,

0xb7, 0xa9, 0xcf, 0x11, 0x8e, 0xe6, 0x00, 0xc0, 0x0c, 0x20, 0x53, 0x65} guid)

is not at the start of the file... No fix for that yet though.

as far as I see the avisynth.dll is not distributed in any of the codecs.
I chcked both windows-all-20050412.zip and all-20050412.tar and windows-essential

mmshttp://media01.interware.hu/hirtv.asf works btw.

[balazs.konya@…]

indeed

mplayer mmshttp://media01.interware.hu/hirtv.asf

works while

mplayer ​http://media01.interware.hu/hirtv.asf

fails.

hi

Tried the patch, it solves the problem, both

./mplayer ​http://media01.interware.hu/hirtv.asf

./mplayer mmshttp://media01.interware.hu/hirtv.asf

url gets played with mplayer (though the quality is rather poor)

I also tested the
./mplayer -v -playlist ​http://www.hirtv.net/adas.asx

which is OK too.

I assume someone can close this bug.

[balazs.konya@…]

Anyone is taking care of this bug?

The patch proposed by Zuxy Meng should be added to the CVS, then the bug can be
closed.

Regards,
Balazs

The patch from Zuxy Meng was just committed to CVS.
