There might be a problem connecting to those particular sites, for instance - verify first if xmms has trouble playing local mp3 files. I'm skeptical if it's an ogg vs. mp3 problem. Also try saving the playlist to a file and use variants of $ mplayer -playlist file.m3u to see if it's an xmms issue or a real issue connecting to the site(s) that offer mp3 content. > ->HS -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ David E.
