This was to do with unicast rtsp vod and vlc-trunk with a LIVE.COM
modified to speak Kasenna variant RTSP.

I've enabled the extra debug messages as suggested and uploaded logs
to:

   http://www.bqbsoftware.ie/vlc/vlc_rtsp_bug/

   vod_vlc_not_working.log 16-Sep-2004 12:05   225k
   vod_vlc_working.log     16-Sep-2004 12:20  14.2M
   vod_vlc_working1.log    16-Sep-2004 12:28   7.1M
   vod_vlc_working2.log    16-Sep-2004 12:34   5.7M


During testing, when I redirected output to file, everything started
to work, so it seems it was a problem with gnome-terminal and cpu.
