Setting the user-agent does not work?

Hi,

I'm trying to set the user-agent with " --http-user-agent='QuickTime.7.6.2 (qtver=7.6.2;cpu=IA32;os=Mac 10,5,7)' " on a Mac with OSX 10.5.7 using vlc "version 0.9.9a Grishenko".

Because I believe that this is not a Mac related problem I'm posting it here.

When I try to do so with

Code: Select all

"... /VLC --http-user-agent='QuickTime.7.6.2 (qtver=7.6.2;cpu=IA32;os=Mac 10,5,7)' -vvv -I dummy rtsp://ondemand.quicktime.zdf.newmedia.nacamar.net/zdf/data/quicktime/..."
I'm ending up always with a "User-Agent: VLC media player (LIVE555 Streaming Media v2009.03.22)" in the debug
log.

What I'm doing wrong here?

Thanks for your help!
Bye,
Hans

--http-user-agent is not for the live555 RTSP module. You cannot change the useragent used by the RTSP client module.

Wow, that was fast!

Thanks for pointing that out!
