I just compiled vlc-0.9.0 from svn, and I can't open RTSP streams.

I compiled vlc with these options:

./configure --with-ffmpeg-tree=/home/build/vlc/ffmpeg --enable-realrtsp

With VLC 0.8.6c, this stream opens just fine.

What is needed to open rtsp streams?

This is a part of output when vlc is started with -vvv:

Some more info - on 0.8.6c and 0.9.0 (svn), I get this:

$ vlc -l|grep -i rts
VLC media player 0.9.0-svn Grishenko
vod_rtsp RTSP VoD server

$ vlc -l|grep -i rts
VLC media player 0.8.6c Janus
live555 RTP/RTSP/SDP demuxer (benutzt Live555)
live555 RTSP/RTP Zugriff und Demux
vod_rtsp RTSP VoD Server


And I can stream RTSP from both; but can only receive RTSP with 0.8.6c. So, it looks I need to look for live555...
