hi
i raised a thread in the Add-Ons sub-forum, but i think the issue has progressed into a general issue with my XBMC install. anyway, this was the original thread:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=103694
When using the LiveOnlineFooty add-on, the picture plays fine, but i get no audio. i could references to the audio stream in the logs, so assumed it was available and had no issues starting playback. i then spent time looking at the Onkyo AVR SR578 to see if it was blocking it or had some other issue, but found nothing.
i then went down the path of finding similar web streams, to see if they played the audio. i used the LiveStream add-on, as it has many online streams to pick between.
voila - the rtmp-based swf streams had no audio, though the picture played fine here too.
if i chose an flv stream, this had no issue (like the PGA Tour.com add-on), and also if i save a stream on my PC as flv and then play this file across the network i seem to get sound too.
i have the stable release (10.1) currently installed.
do i need to have other components installed? should i switch to the SVN release? am i missing something else?
if i search my system for "*rtmp*", the only results are (and i installed rtmpdump manually this morning in an attempt to test around the issue. i dont know how to use it though! haha):
i have also seen this thread, where the users seem to be manually compiling librtmp inside XBMC, and stating that the internal version used by XBMC is very outdated. comments on this? should i use this with my issue?

hoping this means something to anyone...
