--- Begin Message ---Package: src:vlc Version: 2.2.2-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Steps to reproduce: Try to open the RTMP URL of a live stream in VLC. For example, for the next two days, you can try the ones given in <https://2016.revision-party.net/live>: vlc rtmp://revision.scenesat.com/live/mainhall Actual behavior: VLC shows an error, it is unable to open the stream: Your input can't be opened: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'rtmp://revision.scenesat.com/live/mainhall'. Check the log for details. Expected behavior: VLC should be able to open the stream. Note that the URL is valid, and works fine for users of Windows and other distributions (confirmed SuSE and Arch). More information: The stream above can be watched by changing the URL, and calling vlc "rtmp://revision.scenesat.com/live/mainhall live=1" However, users cannot be expected to know that. Clicking the link in the website above with Firefox opens the stream in VLC, and that should work on Debian like it does elsewhere. The reason it does not work on Debian is that ffmpeg is compiled with "--enable-librtmp". librtmp needs this quirk in the URL to handle live streams (streams that cannot be seeked). I do not have an opinion on where is the best place to fix this bug, but I strongly believe that the "Actual behavior" above is a bug, and the "Expected behaior" is what we should have instead. Note that not only VLC is affected, but also e.g. mpv. Maybe the best place to fix this is librtmp itself. I am reporting this against VLC as this is where the bug surfaces for many users. See <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=819266> for some more information.

Let's consider this fixed. Starting with vlc 3.0.0~rc1 we no longer use an embedded ffmpeg. Additionally, Debian's ffmpeg is now built without librtmp. Cheers -- Sebastian Ramachersignature.asc
