[LINUX] XBMC hangs if trying to stream an ASX file
#1
I'm trying to stream an ASX file to xbmc but all xbmc does is stop running. I opened the ASX file so I could see what it tries to play, I pasted this url in a strm file, but still xbmc hangs while trying to play.

This is the url I'm trying to play: http://wss.mp.advection.net/event/tscnyc...WMExt=.asf

It is a stream that's only online on sunday (it's the stream of Times Square Church; New York).

Hope someone can help me out here, I also tried finding a plugin / script to stream this format, but after a few months of searching I don't know where to look anymore.

I decided to wait to see what happens if I don't do anything after starting an ASX file. XBMC hangs completely, it doesn't matter what button I press nothing is moving. But after 5 minutes the movie suddenly starts streaming?

When I try to start the same asx file on my windows computer it starts immediately, how is this possible?

The same thing happens when trying to play an online stream from the same website (Times Square Church) that's only online on sunday.

I tried updating to the latest XBMC version, but nothing seems to work. Yesterday I decided to let it hang and do nothing with XBMC, after 5 minutes (not exact) the stream suddenly started playing. And when I try to open the stream on my windows machine it start playing directly.

Is there anyone that can help me out here, I really want to watch this stream with my XBMC box.
