[streaming] {BUG} TCP timeout broken?

[DuBuisson, Thomas]

I know this seems trivial but I couldn't find any other reports of the bug:

I am streaming from a Linux FC2 server to a Windows 2000 client using VLC8.1
on both sides.  I am using HTTP.  Initially the video stream works fine
(with a long delay between webcam motion and client displaying the motion)
but when I block TCP data for even a short period of time VLC is unable to
recover.

I have changed the TCP timeout to ~60sec (default: 5000ms) but when I stream
HTTP video the client still will close the video window and stop playing
after a 10 second break in data.  Is there a way to make VLC wait the proper
amount of time before closing the video feed?  If not, is there a patch in
the works?

I am using vlc 8.1 with the client in Windows 2000 and the stream server is
Linux FC2.

Thanks,
Thomas
