![]() ![]() m3u links in VLC directly and they play just fine.īut if I click on the link in Firefox, a new tab appears, and it sits there for ages, with a status bar message "connecting to ". ![]() ![]() The reason I would prefer to listen to streams in VLC is so that if I close Firefox after starting a music stream, then VLC can still keep playing the music. But it seems like Firefox wants to play mp3 audio in its own (html5?) builtin player, but that it doesn't support m3u. There are ways around this for me - like loading the URL directly into VLC, though that is clumsier I'm at a bit of a loss as to why/how this change has occurred. The problem persists even in Safe Mode (i.e., with extensions disabled). This has occurred on 2 different machines running Linux Mint (with Firefox Sync active) but also on a Windows 7 machine which does not have FF Sync enabled. Now when I click such a link, a new blank tab still opens but it just sits there in a "loading" state with a status bar message "Connecting to .". It did open a blank tab as well, but no big deal. Prior to v57 I could click on a link like and tell Firefox to always open it in VLC, after which I would be able to listen to these sorts of streaming music stations in VLC with a simple click in Firefox. ![]()
