[Live-devel] authentication problem

[K3 Naa]

I am trying to open a password-protected rtsp stream.  After no success with
mplayer, I tried opening it directly with openRTSP, and get the following
output, with "RTSP/1.0 401 Unauthorized" at the very end:

-----

------

I get the same output if a use rtsp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOSTNAME:PORT
instead of the command line options for authentication.  I also get the same
output if I don't specify any login information at all.  Is this a syntax
issue, or does the server use some sort of unsupported authentication?
