I did some more investigation. The URL passed to mplayer by the plugin is 'http://www.filmarkivet.no/open/film/playlist.aspx?teasers=1&pl=smil' This URL contain content like this: <smil xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/SMIL20/Language";> <head> <layout> <root-layout background-color="black" id="r1" width="800" height="450" /> <region left="0" top="0" width="100%" height="100%" fit="fill" id="r2" /> <region left="100" top="0" width="100%" height="100%" fit="meet" id="r3" /> </layout> </head> <body> <seq> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/nfi_vignett.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_50684.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_51063.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_51068.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_51076.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_51271.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400050.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400054.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400056.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_46242.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_46259.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400054.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400046.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400056.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400038.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400040.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400047.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400044.mp4" region="r3" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400050.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400053.mp4" region="r2" /> <video src="rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/p_400049.mp4" region="r2" /> </seq> </body> </smil> When I test with gmplayer behind NAT with a command line like this, no video is played: gmplayer rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/nfi_vignett.mp4 while when I add the -rtsp-stream-over-tcp option, it work: gmplayer -rtsp-stream-over-tcp \ rtsp://qtsrv1.ella.no/filmarkivet/movie/nfi_vignett.mp4 With VLC, this work out of the box, and this make me suspect it will automatically try TCP if UDP fail. Perhaps an idea for mplayer to get it workout out of the box when the client is behind NAT?
