[MPlayer-users] MPlayer through authenticating proxy

[Emil Mikulic]

$ mplayer http_proxy://user:pass@proxy:8080/http://stream.server:8000

Sends an "Authorization:" header instead of a "Proxy-Authorization:"
header.  At least with our authenticating NetApp NetCache, this doesn't
work.

Pre-pending "Proxy-" to the line in libmpdemux/http.c (in pre8) "fixes"
this problem, but incorrectly.

I think MPlayer needs to be able to send up to two auth headers in the
same request: a Proxy-Authorization for the proxy, and an Authorization
for the web server it's connecting to.
