the prob occurs on a wmp v.10

seems to me, if there's no problem with the stream itself (xmms plays it
pretty well) that it has to do with mime-types interpretation. 

is there a best or most compatible way to reference a stream from
an icecast2-server? right now i see that also the streams from the
icecast.org directory listing work... 

what woukd be "the right" link on a website, so that ist works with 
most players? or is that question naiv? ...
thanks, udo
