Failing to start html 5 video stream

Postby Kasea » 23 Sep 2017 23:51

Build: Nightly win-32 bit, vlc-3.0.0-20170923-0252
Language: Python 3.5.3 32 bit
Stream/url: http://st5.anime1.com/[HorribleSubs]%20 ... 1506213180

First let me say starting the stream works fine for Edge/Chrome/Firefox, so I'm assuming there's nothing wrong with the actual stream (at least at the point of this upload). As far as I can tell it doesn't use cookies, so that shouldn't be a problem nor does it have any other way of authentication (as far as i can tell).
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create vlc instance (I used --verbose 2 to show logs)
2. Create a new media player
3. Create a instance.media_new object using the url
4. do get_mrl on new media object
5. set the player's media to the media object
6. play off the media with player.play()
