Online playlists (streaming) not working

[epoch]

I really like SMPlayer and I just replaced VLC with it as it's much stabler. But there's one issue that I can't seem to figure out:

I've tried a few streaming radios but they don't work. For example: http://onair15.xdevel.com:7096/listen.pls

it plays fine in mplayer and vlc, but in smplayer it just doesn't do anything. I've tried both from the terminal and from the "open url" menu. Then if I press the "play" button it briefly shows "connecting to server" and then "stop".

Any suggestion?

That playlist works fine in my computer.

Is there a debug/verbose switch or something I can enable to understand why it doesn't work on mine? Like I said, here all playlists I've tried work fine with other players but not with smplayer, so the connection works and the audio libraries are ok.

[rvm]

Send the smplayer log (menu View) after trying to play the playlist.

Thanks. Here's the log (I clicked twice the "play" button just to make sure) https://pastebin.com/raw/dr399rRw

Go to preferences -> general and select mpv as multimedia engine instead of mplayer.

I can confirm choosing mpv as multimedia engine solves the problem with playlists, but it causes a different issue: video files are played "detached" from smplayer. Screenshot:

[rvm]

Try selecting a different video output in preferences -> general -> video.
If that doesn't fix it, then maybe you can try to pass to mpv the option --gpu-context=x11 (preferences -> advanced -> mplayer/mpv), as another user explained here: https://sourceforge.net/p/smplayer/bugs/938/#887c

None of those worked, including passing the option, which made mpv show no video at all. Since I'm on gnome/wayland I tried --gpu-context=wayland and video was visible again, but in its own detached window.

Since mplayer has no issues with videos, I'll keep the default settings for now and avoid playlists. I plan to move soon from Gnome to Mate anyway, maybe things will work better then. Thanks for your help.
