OK, we are now getting somewhere, I did hear sound out of that, now |
34 |
that is interesting, but how does this work -- does it not copy the |
35 |
file or is it playing from the drive? I have cdcd and it thinks its |
36 |
playing, bu I hear nothing. Also, I can't get mplayer to do anyting, |
37 |
it thinks the url is wrong or something, so this is more complicated. |
