[QUOTE="haggard, post: 85041, member: 183237"] gameboy, On Mac, a little file video.pls is downloaded to your standard download folder. Select it, hit Apple + i and then change default player to VLC. The equivalent audio playlist is .m3u and this will be iTunes by default but can be changed to VLC. A few weeks back I posted a thread "How to stream from DB to Mac). It works for PC as well. Using Safari, the text line containing video and audio pids is jumbles but is sorted by apple + + followed by apple + - (i.e. enlarge text, reduce text). Firefox is cleaner but it is not bug-free for Mac yet, (version 1.0!) I can stream equally well to PC (Firefox) or Mac (Safari or Firefox). IE works on neither because I havent had time to figure how to make IE select VLC as default handler for video and audio playlists. I rarely have problems with no audio. A single playlist file video.pls handles video and audio stream. The single playlist audio.m3u brings the audio alone. I dont know how to bring video alone! you say . . . . . ow I wanted the video-1.pls file handled . . . . this means you have a video.pls from a previous stream. It then names them video-1.pls, video-2.pls for each new one. They dont get deleted. Best go to download folder and clean them all out and start fresh from time to time. [/QUOTE]
