anyone tried mms stream in MPD successfully?

Hi, all:
My MPD play everthing OK, except mms stream. No matter I compiled manually(version 0.15.15) or use the binary from Debian Squeeze repo(version 0.15.12). The output just told me: "problem decoding mms", and I've definitely enabled the option "--enable-mms". I've compiled MPD on my laptop with the same options, mms stream is OK.
I even tried to use mplayer to play mms, and it's also OK. I'm totally lost, any ideas, thanks in advance.

Hi edwardwo

This is an old post, but I'm new to plug computers and maybe it is of help.

I compiled MPD version 0.16.6 from source on my D2plug running Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS with a 2.6.32.9-dove-5.4.2 kernel. I was not satisfied with the included MPD version 0.15.4, as I had distorted mp3 playback. I included mms support and because of your post I tried two mms streams.

mms://stream.green.ch/argovia
gave me an error: "decoder_thread: mmsx_connect() failed". The same address works in mplayer. It takes quite long to get the connection in mplayer so maybe this is a timeout problem.

mms://apasf.apa.at/fm4_live_worldwide
works without problems in MPD and mplayer.

So I guess this version should work in general.
