[gst-devel] httpsrc with bad URL: while(1) { malloc(); };

[Rodney Dawes]

Yes. It's a bug. File one. :)
As for gnomevfssrc, it'll be able to play mms:// in the near future
also. FWIW, I also ended up playing stuff over an smb share, through
an ssh tunnel one night, just to screw around with gstreamer. It worked
perfectly. And then again, the gnome-vfs2 dependencies are less than
those for 1.4. :)

    Yes, that works. It's not quite as svelte as httpsrc, though (I'm
    writing software for a low-storage, low-cpu, low-memory set-top box).
    gnomevfssrc consumes 1.5MB more than httpsrc, not to mention the extra
    library requirements. I may try to use it yet, if only to get nice
    things like smb:// :)
    
    Besides, this qualifies, I think, as a bug in httpsrc, regardless.
    
    Thanks,
