Hi Kevin,

I've got another one for you :)

The following site contains links to some previously recorded sport  
footage. The media provider has put together a playlist that plays an ad  
for their sponsor first, then the footage.

Using the latest nightly CVS of mplayerplug-in seems to result in the  
advertisement playing over and over without the footage.

I was concerned that this may be a malformed playlist, so I used wget to  
download the ASX playlist, and played it directly using mplayer with the  
-playlist option. This worked as expected.

The videos can be found on the following page:  
http://tvnz.co.nz/view/sport_index_skin/sport_index_group

link I tested against: "Silver Ferns 76-20 Botswana (1:14:14)"

We're still using debian sarge, firefox 1.5 with mplayer 1.0.


Thanks again for your hard work!

Alex.
