However, the listen-again is only part of it, there's also the
listen-live e.g. http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/radio4fm from BBC
home page / radio frame (centre)

These work in VLC when driven from CLI but (for me at least) not via the
vlc-mozilla plugin.



Two playable links there, both play here, I think it was Six O'Clock News...
openSUSE 11.0, Firefox, VLC plugin, everything in today's level.


Vahis,

Strange, they don't work for me on either of my two 11.0 systems (both
fully up to date) or my 11.1 b4 / factory box - all 3 report e.g."To
play please first install Real Player."

If I right-click and copy the link then paste into Konsole I can play
this using vlc <url> - so its only the plugin that's not right.

Can we confirm that the links that work for you are in the form

http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/console/radio4fm (this is a live one)

Yes
and not like this (a listen-again) - these work for me too.

BTW I'm using VLC 0.9.5 "Grishenko" from the OSL VideoLAN repo

Thanks for any further help...

Mine is from the openSUSE 11.0 community reposity videolan.
