MPlayer help!

My tivo was working fine for a while, streaming right to Mplayer. All the sudden it stopped working. Now, I'm getting the following in MPlayer (on windows)

Any ideas? I can still stream to WMP with the asx, but it's not working in MPlayer. I'm baffled.

Thanks!

no one has any suggestions?

Looks like its throwing at least one warning and an error with the font file. Apparently MPlayer doesn't like *something* and is exiting abnormally. ( replacing the arial font with a known good one might or might not help)

I'm not entirely sure how asx streaming works as I don't use it. But are you sure you're connecting to the correct port number on the TiVo?

I can view the stream through windows media player without issue but Id much rather use mplayer
