I suspect they're using a codec you don't yet have on your computer. 
Maybe http://www.princessleia.com/MPlayer.php can help in that regard.

I'm probably late on this reply, but there are two things wrong with 
this. First, Debian unstable and Ubuntu Hardy use the same win32 codec 
package, at least as near as I can tell from apt-cache madison. I have 
both repositories in my sources.list. Second, wouldn't FC6 be older than 
either and have older codecs?

Where did you find the codecs for the ubuntu hardy system?  I am using 
this too, and I cannot find the codec package to go with mplayer.  I am 
using mplayer on ubuntu hardy as well.  



Thanks.

Ah. that is your problem. You are trying to play a .pls file in linux are 
you sure that will work. I'm unsure about ubuntu I had tried this in 
windows. I haven't found the shoutcast server for ubuntu yet, there is still 
some investigating I need to do.

Hi people,

Will someone using mplayer please try accessing the following link and
see if it plays for you? When I access it, it plays for about a minute
and terminates with no error messages, simply saying it reaches the end
of file. The stream is a relatively new radio reading service which
claims nobody else is having any trouble with them, and yet this is the
only link that I am having trouble with. The URL is:

http://151.204.233.83:8000

Many thanks for any info. Very puzzling.

Chuck

My results were the same as yours -- streams for less than 1 minute.

	Same here.  Played for about 20-25 seconds each time I tried it
and heard nothing but commercials.  (Would have replied earlier but
accidently deleted the message.

Thanks, Michael.

Jim might have found a workaround for that link, but it seems to work
okay on older systems like FC6 for instance, and consistently cuts out
on newer ones.

It breaks here too. Only  a few seconds of audio then it dies.
