I am running Archlinux/KDE4 on a 64-bit box. I am unsuccessfully trying to play/view this stream with Firefox3 and the MPlayer plugin:

If anyone around here is able to view this streaming format under Linux, I would be very interested in how you do it and, if you know, what format/codec is in use.
BTW, here is the output from an attempt at debugging:
[~]$ mplayer -vo xv

I have looked at the various *.conf files, but I obviously don't know which settings to alter, if any...
Funny thing is that these files would play without any problem under a live distribution of Yoper that I tried last year, but I am not going to trade Arch for this issue alone...
