Does your mplayer work with  http://6pr.com.au/live.asx ?
I get:

- --snip--
Connecting to server 6pr.com.au[203.30.44.22]:80 ...
size_confirm mismatch!: 22611 28271
Error while parsing chunk header
Unknown protocol: http
asf_streaming_start failed

Option stream url: This URL doesn't have a hostname part.
File not found: 'live.asx'
Failed to open http://6pr.com.au/live.asx

Obviously i'm missing a codec or somming..
