> Seems like something regressed because I cannot play any live stream now. Neither ManualTests/video-rtsp.html nor any live content from the web works. The former just don't show anything, on the web I tried the stream at http://demo.smart-streaming.com/fms/demo/mobile.html for example and it shows an error:
>

We have 2 cases here:
1) direct rtsp link
2) rtsp link embedded on <video>

For 1), all major browsers I tested (chrome/ff on linux, safari on osx) will open a "Launch Application" dialog asking to open link with an external app.

For 2), we have a real issue where no video is being loaded, I am working on a fix.

The question is what should we do for 1), options:
1.1) open *all* rtsp links with the mediaplayer and embed the video
1.2) show dialog asking how to open link as done in other browsers
1.3) do nothing, apps using webkitgtk+ should do it themselves

Please let me know what you think.
