Thanks Ubuntu .......... but

[Anthony Gardner]

Jim, when you said it worked for you, was that under windoooze or linux? If linux, and you were using one of xine, mplayer, gxine, totem ..... how did yo manage to get the chance to enter a postcode (what special powers do you have?? :D )

Anyway, I've given up but ................

mplayer rtsp://rmlive.bbc.co.uk/bbc-rbs/rmlive/ev7/live24/6music/live/6music_dsat_g2.ra

(BBC 6Music) has more than filled the gap if anyone is interested.

Thanks to one and all for trying the link ........... it was a strange request but also strange that it stopped working after upgrading. Maybe just a coincidence and I think it seems clear xfm (or provider) has changed the streaming format.

Again, thanks for the help
