HI all,
First off, thanks for all the hard work bumping ffmpeg to a newer version!
I was having difficulty writing a certain add-on in which the final videos are actually m3u8 playlists (of the variant kind). To my understanding,
ffmpeg 1.2 now supports HLS much better, with cookie handling and AES encryption where applicable
(looking at
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master...rmat/hls.c)
Also, to my understanding, based on
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/2730 (PR 2730), XBMC's code now passes HTTP OPTIONS
based on the convention used by your CURL Impl, correct ?
I can see that in DVDDemuxFFmpeg::GetFFMpegOptionsFromURL .
So, to properly support HLS that need cookies I'll need to use Gotham since the bump to 1.2 is a major commit.
Is there no other solution for this in Frodo ? HLS streams that don't need cookies should work properly as I understand it.
