VLC 3.0.1 - AAC streaming w/ auth working on QT but not in VLC

Hi.

I searched for a solution on the web, but i havent found any solution or apporach.
perhaps you can help you, could you ?

when browsing this radio streaming https://buecrplb01.cienradios.com.ar/Mitre790.aac a login auth is being asked.

executing this cURL in termina does not

Code: Select all

curl 'https://buecrplb01.cienradios.com.ar/Mitre790.aac' -H 'DNT: 1' -H 'Accept-Encoding: identity;q=1, *;q=0' -H 'Accept-Language: en-US,en;q=0.9' -H 'User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_13_4) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.181 Safari/537.36' -H 'chrome-proxy: frfr' -H 'Accept: */*' -H 'Referer: https://radiomitre.cienradios.com/player/' -H 'Connection: keep-alive' -H 'Range: bytes=0-' --compressed
so i opened the url with quicktime, and it reproduces the stream smoothy without asking any user/password creds.

but VLC /network is asking me for user/pass

what am i doing wrong ? any idea to resolve it ?

thanks in advance,
gabkat

The server is asking for authentication, so well, you need to provide authentication.

If you try the cURL command i sent, no auth is required. QuickTime, as written in the subject i also playing perfectly without credentials...

If you try the provided with wget, you see that authentication is required.

So either this is not a normal HTTP stream, or you need credentials.
