[MPlayer-users] rtsp streaming problem in old fedora

[Anirban Dutta Choudhury]

Somehow, I can not reply to the reply I got (i do not have mail
delivery enabled). That's why I'm replying to my own email:

So the version I'm using is the latest for the Fedora version I'm
using, according to yum. Nevertheless following is the output I'm
getting with the latest svn snapshot of mplayer:

[root at localhost mplayer-checkout-2010-05-10]# mplayer
rtsp://root:pass@172.16.1.1/axis-media/media.amp
MPlayer SVN-r31151-4.1.2 (C) 2000-2010 MPlayer Team
