Sigh…  As usual, the VLC people think that the whole world revolves around them, and that they’re the only people who use the LIVE555 libraries.  They didn’t bother informing us about this.

I have just installed a new version - 2023.03.30 - of the "LIVE555 Streaming Media” code that fixes this.  If you have any more problems with this, just let us know.  Thanks.
