Hmm interesting. I am trying to listen to a vlc generated password
protected stream using vlc (0.8.5).
The vlc generated stream works fine in xmms.

When I type "vlc url" (without username password) vlc asks for username
and password. However
it does not accept what I type.

Putting the username and password in the url doesn't work either.

Same goes for the mozilla plugin.

Any ideas with regard to debugging this would be nice.

Regards,
Michel
