I can no longer open URLs, such as http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r3_aaclca.pls, after upgrading from 158 to 175. I get the error message "Something went wrong with playback". If I downgrade back to 158 the URL plays again with no problem. I have tried this on two different Windows 8 computers with two different sound cards and get exactly the same problem. Any ideas?

[6233638]

Is there any more information other than "Something went wrong with playback"?
It seems to work fine here when I use File > Open URL

[ruskiru]

There's no more information. Is there a way to switch on logging?

I can't reproduce the problem.  I've played that stream successfully on my Win7 machine and on a Win8 machine.  Firewall issues?

My log file is a little different than yours when it parses the playlist:

Code: [Select]

0324623: 3620: Playback: CPlayerZone::Play: Getting actual playback track
0324623: 3620: Playback: CPlayerZone::Play: Processing play for 'http://bbcmedia.ic.llnwd.net/stream/bbcmedia_intl_lc_radio3_p?s=1367418036&e=1367432436&h=43f29ca757533b16df9c6456a46cf8ec'
whereas your is:

Code: [Select]

0005875: 10480: Playback: CPlayerZone::Play: Getting actual playback track
0005875: 10480: Playback: CPlayerZone::Play: Processing play for 'http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio/listen/live/r3_aaclca.pls'

It seems like it can't read the playlist for some reason on your machine.

The URL opens on the same machine in Foobar with no problem, so can't be a firewall issue. Anyway, disabled the firewall and still the URL doesn't open in MC. Considering that downgrading to 158 solves the problem, there must be a change in 175 that's causing this problem, maybe in combination with some configuration I have set in MC, although almost all my settings seem to be more or less the defaults.
