I don't quite understand. The asx is handled in another function that will
parse the asx and return the URL to reconnect to. This is already handle by
looking at the mime-type.
The  asx parser should go in the asf_http_ASX_redirect() function. And
nothing else should be changed.

Cool, ok, no problem. The ASX is in fact an XML, but I think an XML parser
will be too big for our need. For what I have seen we need to retreive the
href attribute that contains the url.

I have a stream with a long long content description, that makes split the 
ASF header in 2 network chunk.
I just fix the last bug, and now it's working well :).

I don't know for this one, I will have a look later, it's not really a bug 
that avoid us to watch the stream ;)
