If you try this as:
mplayer
http://provisioning.streamtheworld.c.../WMALAMAAC.pls
it will not play. If you try this as:
mplayer -playlist
http://provisioning.streamtheworld.c.../WMALAMAAC.pls
it will work. The problem is that as opposed to many other radio stations this station provides a playlist as opposed to an individual stream. I guess this is for redundancy and load sharing purposes from their standpoint, but mplayer does not recognize this. I have added myself and this to a bugzilla entry for mplayer, but this appears to have been around for many years without being fixed. This is a prime reason I use vlc as opposed to mplayer on my systems, as it recognizes the playlist without problems.
