[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libavformat/utils.c: Fixed URL parsing

[gautamramk at gmail.com]

From: Gautam Ramakrishnan <gautamramk at gmail.com>

This commit fixes bug #8466 wherein URLs with query string
not preceeded by the '/' symbol in a URL was failing to get
parsed. The av_url_split() function now checks if the path
starts with a '/' and prepends it if it does not.
