Description
The following URLs (audio then video) don't work on mplayer (or totem or xine for that matter), but work fine on Windows Media Player:
mplayer -playlist http://lds.org/broadcast/file/build/0,16929,4042,00.asx
mplayer -playlist http://lds.org/broadcast/file/build/0,16929,4422,00.asx
(As an aside, why does mplayer not automatically detect this is a playlist? It seems broken that you have to manually specify this, because you can't have mplayer play arbitrary filetypes without knowing whether you need to specify -playlist or not. Should I file a separate bug for this?)

<sits there doing nothing, for hours>
works fine for me...
also the playlist code is not secure, so its not enabled by default
i think you can uncomment out some lines in the source to enable it again.
