I have a fairly current setup. Following the last emerge I did, firefox
and xmms don't play well together. I link to my m3u in firefox (as
broadcast by gnump3d) and rather than play the files, I get a small xmms
error window indicating "server said http 1.0/server said 200 ok"
Naturally, all is not OK as the files won't play. I've attempted
re-emerging xmms as well as removing my config directory and restarting
gnump3d. When this error occurs, the xmms window just contains the http
links to the files to play. If I select an individual mp3, I'm in
business. If I traverse my local directories to the files, all is ok as
well. Anyone else had this issue and resolved it?

having the same problem. if I invoke xmms directly against the m3u
file I get "xmms-mad-Message: error reading input info".

I've just emerged that latest mozilla-firefox, I'm now emerging latest
xmms + dependencies (which includes libmad or whatever it's called...).
Watch this space..

nope. that didn't work.

found a suggestion at

that emerging xmms-mpg123 might resolve this. trying that now..

found a solution at
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t...light-m3u.html which
worked - disable (or uninstall) the MAD plugin. Sorted !
