MediaPlayer fails to play Nectarine streams

Description

http://necta-relay.mnus.de:8000/necta192.mp3

I can't get this to play in MediaPlayer. I get an "out of memory" error and lots of "playing silence" logs. It works fine in VLC 0.8.6.

It makes no sense to play an archived copy from the web archive, that will be a simple mp3 file and not a continuous stream.

The current streams for Nectarine are linked at https://scenestream.net/demovibes/streams/

I can't test them because my current Haiku machine doesn't have working audio. But MediaPlayer seems stuck at "opening" and does not appear to start playing (I tried with https://scenestream.io/necta128.ogg this time). I also tried the corresponding m3u files, that ends up with an "out of memory" error and doesn't start playing anything.

Ok. Compared with mpv 0.35.1. From: https://scenestream.net/demovibes/streams/

  1. http://necta.burn.net:8000/nectarine - works fine.
  2. http://nectarine.bgp.wtf:1337/nectarine - works fine.
  3. http://nectarine.ers35.net:8000/necta192.mp3 - works fine.
  4. http://nectarine.inversi0n.org:8000/necta192.mp3 - works fine.
  5. http://nectarine.shakeme.info:8000/nectarine - works fine.
  6. https://scenestream.io/necta64.mp3 - works fine.
  7. https://scenestream.io/necta48.aac - works fine.
  8. http://pmaster.no:9000/necta - works fine.

Issues:

  1. https://scenestream.io/opus - MediaPlayer didn't play it. mpv worked. See #12696, #18437.
  2. https://scenestream.io/necta128.ogg - MediaPlayer didn't play it. mpv worked. See #17978.

NOTE: If link didn't work, MediaPlayer showed a 'couldn't open file - out of memory' GUI dialog box. MPV showed a time out error, failed to open file/stream message, and then exited program.

Examples:

  1. http://nectarine.from-de.com/necta192 - didn't work with any tested player.
  2. http://nectarine.from-de.com/necta64 - didn't work with any tested player.
