Hi,
it would be awesome if Eden would ship with an updated librtmp, namely this one which adds support for more streaming sites and allows to pass swfhash= and swfsize= via RTMP_SetupURL().

Not going to happen during this release cycle for Eden. Features are frozen as are lib bumps.

Technically, it's not a lib bump, but a bug fix for librtmp 2.4.
Patch Repo
Maybe it can be incorporated into v12.0, though.

Anyways, I detailed the update procedure for Dharma and Eden.

Does not matter, it's a lib bump if I have to bring it into the build system.

In this point i think i speak for a lot of pepole.
Don't get me wrong, but replacing a lib (aka lib bump) shouldn't be a problem, since there is no final yet (RC3 coming?) and as far as i know it's downward compatible.
And this a feature, where without a lot of folks (mostly video addon section) will have a problem with.

Do we still need to patch/update librtmp on the Stable/Final XBMCBuntu Eden after installation? Or does it include already updated librtmp?

I looked into this, the last tag there was 2.4 and we already run 2.4

https://github.com/svnpenn/rtmpdump/tags

When they bump version and tag, then and only then will we bump versions, that is we don't pull from git but from tagged versions.

Apologies if this is the wrong forum, but I have an issue with SOCKS support on XBMC player, and I suspect it is related to librtmp.

When I define a socks proxy on my URL line that I pass to the default player, the socks information is taken, but it doesn't appear to be used.

I have updated librtmp in the c:\program files\xbmc\system\players\dvdplayer directory to the latest compiled version, but no luck.

If I take the same URL and use rtmpdump through my SOCKS proxy, everything works just fine.

I've Wiresharked my SOCKS port, and using the stock player, NO traffic goes to my socks host.

I'm either doing something wrong, or the option is not being handled by the player.

Help ! (please)

Thanks

David
