And how does that work if the underlying stream is _not_ from an RTSP 
URL?

The standard for time representation in VLC is scalar, not string.

If the parameters are potentially useful from demux instantiation all 
the way until destruction, you need to extend demux_t. If the parameters 
are only useful at start-up, adding parameters to the activation 
function prototype is cleaner.
