skip authentication dialog or streams that require it

Postby aitte » 15 Jun 2012 20:45

Hi,
I have a playlist with the resources that require auth when the stream has too many viewers.
I want to get the 1st available spot, so I have to loop/repeat trying to play it until I get it.
I can do this in mplayer, by default it says "stream auth failed" and I just loop the play.
VLC on the other hand prompts the user/pass dialog on each resource, so I can't automate the tries. I wasn't able to find any way to automate it - skip the protected resources or the ones with failed auth.
Plz advice :)
