sopcast 0.9.5 on linux (ubuntu/debian)

you may have noticed that sopcast have improved their program the last months continously. unfortunately at the moment it seems that they won't continue the linux version of sopcast. the sp-sc applications before version 0.9.5 won't work anymore.

luckily sopcast 0.9.5 works at least with wine 0.9.14. the "video display" (the embedded windows media player) I didn't get to work but sopcast offers the option to view the stream on a local port.

so you just have to run sopcast 0.9.5 with wine, chose the channel you prefer and open in the player you prefer the address http://localhost:8902 (e.g. mplayer http://localhost:8902).
