Bug#491402: mozilla-mplayer: Fail to work with http://tv2.no/video/?progid=249168

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

I tested to add debug=1 in ~/.mplayer/mplayerplug-in.conf, and found
the URL passed to the plugin.  This is the output from the plugin.

In this case, it was
<URL:http://webtv.tv2.no/webtv/metafile.asx?p=260363&bw=100>.  Next, I
tried to pass this link to gmplayer, and it fail.  It seem to me that
the ASX XML file provided behind this link is not supported by
mplayer.  The ASX file is attached.  Passing the URL to vlc work.
Passing it to xine and kaffeine only play the sound.

Happy hacking,
