[MPlayer-users] rtsp streaming broken in Pre3? Pre2 appears more stable

[HaJo Schatz]

Hi List,

Just tried to install pre3 on a fedora1 dual Athlon machine and had
quite some trouble with rtsp streaming support. Here's what happens:

$ mplayer rtsp://213.200.64.230/encoder/swr3/livestream.rm
[...]
Playing rtsp://213.200.64.230/encoder/swr3/livestream.rm.
Connecting to server 213.200.64.230[213.200.64.230]:554 ...
librtsp: server responds: 'RTSP/1.0 404 Not Found'

Others seem to have different issues:
$ mplayer rtsp://62.153.249.11:554/live/dwelle/dwelle-video-dsl.rm
[...]
Playing rtsp://62.153.249.11:554/live/dwelle/dwelle-video-dsl.rm.

I then removed the whole ./libmpdemux/realrtsp/* and took this dir from
the pre2 release instead. After a fresh build, the links above work OK:

I solved my problem that way, but maybe you guys want to look into it
along the road to 1.0-stable.
