So looks like the GKrellM side works fine.  Might be an XMMS2
question.  However I'd suggest using mplayer for testing as it provides
good error messages.  In this case, the URL you have still isn't
correct:

  $ mplayer http://34.244.146.50:443
  Playing http://34.244.146.50:443.
  Connecting to server 34.244.146.50[34.244.146.50]: 443...
  connect error: Connection refused
  Failed, exiting.
  No stream found to handle url http://34.244.146.50:443
  Exiting... (End of file)

If you can get a URL that works with mplayer with no errors then it
should work with XMMS2 as well.

Cheers,
Adam.
