Hello,  
My roaudioplayer is not playing Live Audio which is in m3u8 format with AAc chunks. I tried with both M3U8 with AAC and MP3.  
it says : Cannot seek to 0/1000: error -33.

Can any one let me know why?

Please find my code below for your reference:

Sub Main()  
audioPlayer = CreateObject(“roAudioPlayer”)  
port = CreateObject(“roMessagePort”)  
audioPlayer.SetMessagePort(port)  
song = CreateObject(“roAssociativeArray”)  
song.url = “[http://radio01.pcmac.org:8000/7C1AFAED-DC65-4DB2-A283-50E58FD880AD.m3u8](http://radio01.pcmac.org:8000/7C1AFAED-DC65-4DB2-A283-50E58FD880AD.m3u8)”  
audioplayer.addcontent(song)  
audioplayer.setloop(false)  
audioPlayer.play()  
while true  
msg = wait(0, port)  
if type(msg) = “roAudioPlayerEvent”  
if msg.isStatusMessage() then  
print "roAudioPlayerEvent: "; msg.getmessage()  
if msg.getmessage() = “end of playlist” return  
endif  
endif  
end while  
End Sub

I don’t know what that is, but it isn’t an m3u8 HLS file.
