Package: mpg123
Version: All

When i starts play my favorit Radio Station "http://listen.trancebase.fm/tunein-mp3-pls"
the mpg123 gets a HTTP 404 Not Found:

$ mpg123 -vvvv http://listen.trancebase.fm/tunein-mp3-pls
   ...
   HTTP in: ICY 404 Resource Not Found
   HTTP request failed: 404 Resource Not Found
   [mpg123.c:566] error: Access to http resource http://listen.trancebase.fm/tunein-mp3-pls failed.

in the verbose mode i saw the problem:

The location header from the HTTP/1.1 302 is wrong splited.
The ending "\r" and/or "\n" ist not dropped but also added to the Hostname.
So is the port in the Host Header moves to the next line :-(

Also is the path not set to "/" with the result thats the get request ist invalid.
  "GET  HTTP/1.0" sould be "GET / HTTP/1.0"

I get the sources and detect the problem in the function "split_url(...)" from the file "src/resolver.c"
The Funktion needs a path in the URL but do not get it from the header.

to fix the "\r","\n" problem replace the "if "Line

         for(pos2=pos; pos2<  url->fill-1; ++pos2)
         {
                 char a = url->p[pos2];
                 if( a == ':' || a == '/' ) break;
         }
         /* At pos2 there is now either a delimiter or the end. */

      if( a == ':' || a == '/' ) break;

thru

         for(pos2=pos; pos2<  url->fill-1; ++pos2)
         {
                 char a = url->p[pos2];
                 if( a == ':' || a == '/' || a == '\r' || a == '\n') break;
         }
         /* At pos2 there is now either a delimiter or the end. */

for the second problem of the missing path replace

         /* Now only the path is left. */
         if(path) ret = mpg123_set_substring(path, url->p, pos, url->fill-1-pos);

true

         /* Now only the path is left. */
         if (path)
         {
                 if( url->p[pos] == '\r' || url->p[pos] == '\n')
                 {
                         ret = mpg123_set_substring(path, "/", 0, 1);
                 }
                 else
                 {
                         ret = mpg123_set_substring(path, url->p, pos, url->fill-1-pos);
                 }
         }
