Full Version: Can't play internet stream in 0.9
in 0.9 i can't play internet streams such as sc1.liquidviewer.com:9000/ or http://www.live365.com/play/spreadent without an error saying "Unable to open item for playback", they both work fine in 0.83 and other players like Media Player Classic. Any suggestions?
http://www.live365.com/play/spreadent and http://sc1.liquidviewer.com:9010/ work fine here.
Is something wrong with my setup then? I get:
Unable to open item for playback (DNS error : could not resolve "www.live365.com"):
"http://www.live365.com/play/spreadent"
Unable to open item for playback (DNS error : could not resolve "www.live365.com"):
"http://www.live365.com/play/spreadent"
Do you use a proxy?

No
Has anyone come up with anything regarding this? I also have similar problems. Nothing in Foobar2000 0.9 seems to connect anywhere. FreeDB tagger worked when I inserted :80 after freedb.freedb.org. Streaming doesn't work and Audioscrobbler plug-in doesn't work.

I managed to connect to http://www.live365.com/play/spreadent by going to it in my browser and then using the address it redirects to. Still not ideal though, it worked fine in 0.83 so something has been broken in 0.9.

That link works without problems in the upcoming 0.9.1 beta 2 (haven't tried 0.9.1 beta 1).
F.ex. does http://www.mikseri.net/music/play.php?id=103403&type=hi stream correctly on your 0.9? I installed 0.9.1 just now, and still doesn't work. Used to work with 0.8. Dang.

Same here, works just fine.
i have the same problems. It seems until 0.9 Beta 10 all was fine.
No problem and quick response on Internet streams.
But afterwards I guess with the new http-code things got mixed up. Even from internal network files served through apache over 1GBit Ethernet, performance is VERY slow. until Beta 10 it needs only a fraction of a second until MP3 files start but afterwards it take several second! About 20 seconds in general for a 6 MB MP3 file!
I hope these problem will get fixed one day until than the only choice for me is to stay with Beta 10 which works flawless.

the new 0.9.1 release finally resolved the streaming issues for me 
Edit: Nevermind, foobar 0.9.1 still has streaming issues
