Hi again,

This might actually be a GStreamer problem. Running

        gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri="http://83.145.201.209:8000"

as per the README, works fine in unstable, but seems to hang in
unstable. I'm guessing totem uses a different method?

The other stream I couldn't get working in any player, so I guess it's a
problem on their end.
