regression: vlc-1.1.0 does not ask for username/password

[kot]

Hello!

My little "web" camera asks for username and password before proceeding with the RTSP stream. This worked fine with vlc-1.0.5 and 1.0.6, which were prompting me for password, but vlc-1.1.0 does not ask for password. It then can not get the stream and produces an unhelpful message.

Running with -vvv, I get:

Code: Select all

Interestingly, embedding the username and password into the URL itself (rtsp://username:password@cam-masik:554/nphMpeg4/g726-320x240) bypasses the first hurdle, but screws something else up later, and, eventually, a message pops up telling me about a problem trying to play on username:0...

Please, advise. Thanks!
