Hello all,

	I'm having this really annoying problem with mplayer and
listening to shoutcast streams. Keep in mind I'm on a slow dial-up
line... but I don't think that has to do with it. Anyway, the problem is
that, after playing the audio stream for about a minute (regardless of
whether the cache size is at the default of 64KB or 256 KB) the stream
stops and starts about every two seconds, mpg123 says "cannot rewind
stream by xxx bits," and alsa starts shouting about xruns of all at
least 2000 miliseconds. Oss doesn't care, but mpg123 still gives me the
"cannot rewind" errors. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Garrett
