"XMMS" and "Xine" support everything,all the streaming video and audio formats
provided you apply one or two plug-ins.
I can not give you the details of the plug-ins here  because these
plug-ins are not FOSS.
Visit their homepages (And dont forget the links by Rex..)

and

a quickhow to and everything done.
Its that easy.
