the current stream API provides a mechanism to access urls: in stream_file.c
there's this initilizer
stream_info_t stream_info_file = {
"File",
"file",
"Albeu",
"based on the code from ??? (probably Arpi)",
open_f,
{ "file", "", NULL },
&stream_opts,
1 // Urls are an option string
};
that provides a way to access a file using file:// syntax, but it's not
working.
This means there's a bug to fix properly in the stream driver
