whats the correct settings for m3u on icecast.
my helperapps are audio/x-m3u, audio/m3u, still km saves, not open.
pls are opening fine.

Try audio/mpegurl and audio/x-mpegurl

No go here.
Does it work for you?

I don't know of an icecast server to try, on my own host if I set up a directive for Apache like:

AddType audio/m3u m3u

...then navigate to a m3u file, it downloads and opens with winamp (default handler on my system for m3u files).

I find the whole mimeType handling issue confusing but I copied and pasted the mimeTypes.rdf file from my Mozilla directory on my PC to my KM profile directory and all seems to work well. Shoutcast & Icecast streams open automatically. You can download the file at the following address and see if it works for you.

]http://home.comcast.net/~jsnj/mimeTypes.rdf

It'll probably open as a text file. If so, just right-click, Save Page As and save as mimeTypes.rdf to your KM profile directory, typically located here:

C:\Program Files\K-Meleon\Profiles\default\xxxxxxx.slt[/i]

*Forgive the detailed explanation. Some others may read with the same problem and need a lil more hand holding. MimeTypes handling seems to be a problem for many in KM.

As monkee suggested, you dont need an rdf file to open mime.
You can do it from pref, audio/m3u.... and so on.
But I tryed your rdf and one from
http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/browser/app/profile/win/mimeTypes.rdf#7
No luck. I even changed your rdf, added m3u lines there. No go.
I'm not not givin up yet.

marc v:

If the icecast server is public and you can post the URL, I'll try to figure out what MIME-type it is sending the file as and report back.

icecast servers are @ http://icecast.org/streamlist.php
could you take a look and confirm opening streams.

I tried a server and it saved the m3u to disk and then opened it in Winamp5, so I downloaded the m3u file from the link with wget using the -S option to show the server headers, and here is the output:

C:\wget>wget -S http://icecast.org/listen.php?serverURL=http%3A%2F%2Fstreams.benow.ca%3A80%2Fcjsw&file=listen.m3u

It looks like it is just sending the file as audio/m3u, so I'm not sure why it isn't working for you. :\

S.D.G

so its
>6 Content-Type: audio/m3u, not /x-m3u

anyways, what do you have in
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\
for m3u

do you have mimetype.rdf file, or just prefs?

jsnj
As monkee suggested, you dont need an rdf file to open mime.
You can do it from pref, audio/m3u.... and so on.

I know, but I couldn't get shoutcast streams to open automatically with just the prefs strings. I was only able to with the rdf. The only files that don't want to open automatically for me now are wmv files. They open as text. But I have the same problem with FireXXX & Mozilla with wmv files. Anyway,sorry it didn't work for you. Unfortunately I'm clueless as to why.

jsnj
thats OK. youre doing good service here.
just put m3u in rdf file on your website.

marc v:

I only have a blank OpenWithList key there and a PersistantHandler key which points to a CLSID entry for an iTumes DLL (query.dll).

I have this entry in mimeTypes.rdf:

I added it using my mtypes chrome extension.

S.D.G

yea, I changed jsnj rdf the same way.

CLSID ?
I have .m3u pointing to m3u_auto_file. And
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\m3u_auto_file]
@="M3U File"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\m3u_auto_file\shell]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\m3u_auto_file\shell\open]
@=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\m3u_auto_file\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\fmod371\\fmod.exe\" %1"

Geez...mimeTypes are so touchy....using MSage's editor I was able to add the m3u info to an rdf file in one build but had problems getting it to work when adding it to another rdf in another build from which the one posted in this thread is based. Turns out all I had to do was change the extension description from .m3u to m3u, which doesn't make much sense to me since I specified the shoutcast extension as .pls and that works fine. Anyway, the rdf is updated. BTW, the reason m3u's opened automatically for me without the added info in the rdf, was because I had the prefs string. I forgot I still had that in there.

could it be a missing codex?
If I understand You folks right - these streams play but not with everyones K-M.

- my player from:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli/
says he is missing a codec if I try with MSIE instead of k-m?
(I have to big codec pack from there)

Monkey-Sage uses another player - if i recall rightly - from what he told in a thread.

>could it be a missing codex?
Dont think so. My player doesnt use any codecs. It has its own dll for that.

BTW, for all of you, not brainwashed, c2c has free mp3 weekend.

Hi Marc v,
Thx for adding the links.
& which player are You using anyway?
reason: I look for a player that can record radio-streams as mp3.
i want to record some rare minority music which I can not get/buy here.

i also am also looking for a player that uses little ram.

codecs - most programers of player seem to use pre-programed codec dll´s.
easier that way i guess.

If Your player has it own it is possibly lean in ram?
greetings from Hannover

Hi guenter .
I'm using fmod, it has the lowest footprint and cpu usage. http://www.fmod.org/
You olso need a streamripper http://streamripper.sourceforge.net/sr32/
If you stream real or M$ media, you need different rippers, look up on the net.

I would like ask you a question.
Did you see Bohemian Grove tape that Alex Jones took undercover.
He said it was shown in Europe, theres no chance to see it here.

hi marc v,
1.) thx for info.url.

2.) no, but will look & ask friends by mail, ifFound - i post info here. greetings.

As a workaround:

1. Get Firefox (yes).

2. Make Firefox play m3u files from a couple of websites (not every website presents m3u as the same mimetype).

3. Copy mimetypes.rdf from Firefox to K-Meleon
.
4. Check if it works.

5. Delete Firefox.

Michel

thx, not all people have ram enough for FF.
(perhaps the download facility of FF should be included in next k-m?
if it is not too big and clumsy?)

listen.m3u from icecast.org will accept the following

this goes into list at top of mimetypes.rdf in used Profile

<RDF:li resource="urn:mimetype:audio/m3u"/>


this goes into center section - opens foobar.exe and starts playing
can be use as example for other stream (edit path and player).
& i do not know wether it contains redundant info.
