[maemo-developers] Ogg Streams / Media player

Hi!

I was playing around with Tuomas' packages [1] and the stock media
player.  Unfortunately it failed playback Ogg streams like [2].

The media player seams to load the stream but it doesn't play it.  It's
just buffering.  While it sits there and does nothing than buffering I
captured the network traffic.  Indeed it does receive the stream.

To my surprise, the following works nicely:

$ gst-launch-0.10 gnomevfssrc location=http://listen.fm4.amd.co.at:31337/fm4-lq.ogg ! application/ogg ! tremor ! dsppcmsink

or,

$ gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=http://listen.fm4.amd.co.at:31337/fm4-lq.ogg

Thus, I'm asking:  Is there a way to convince the media player to not
only buffer but also to playback the stream? :-)

Thanks,

   Timo
