Hi,

While trying to stream mp3 via https, I get the following error:
DBG: md_enable: algorithm 8 not available
[00e0b088] gnutls generic error: TLS handshake error: Internal error in memory allocation

I'm using the following command :
vlc "myfile.mp3" -I dummy --loop --sout "#transcode{vcodec=none,acodec=mp3,ab=64,channels=1,samplerate=44100}:std{access=https,dst=:8080/myfile.mp3}" --sout-keep --file-caching=200 --http-key="private.key" --http-cert="cert.crt"

VLC 2.0.3 - Windows XP SP2
Thank you !

I tried with CA-Cert, and self-signed certificates: same result.
Tried on another computer (Windows XP SP3): same result.

It it possible to stream in https using VLC ?

This might be not tested enough, indeed.
Please file a bugreport.

It looks like a broken libgcrypt build to me, namely one without support for SHA-256.

Can you try to play with the gnutls priority option? In preferences, all, advanced, gnutls
Because I think sha256 is missing

Same result with all other gnutls priority options in the player, except with 128-bits where I get another message: "gnutls generic error: TLS handshake error: Could not negotiate a supported cipher suite"

OK. I think we will fix for 2.0.4

Ok, thank you.
Waiting for 2.0.4!

Hi Jean-Baptiste,

Just looking for some news about vlc 2.0.4, or a fix for https mp3 streaming.

Thank you!

http://people.videolan.org/~jb/vlc-2.0.4-win32.exe Try this

Tried with this version, but unfortunately same problem...

DBG: md_enable: algorithm 8 not available
[00e09da8] gnutls generic error: TLS handshake error: Internal error in memory allocation.

Do you prefer me to file a bugreport?
Thank you.

maybe...

Bug report opened here: http://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/7559
Thank you.

GnuTLS with libgcrypt is not supported anymore in VLC 2.1

So...? Will vlc use any other library? Or..?
