[FFmpeg-devel] [RFC] RTSP/HTTP authentication in ffserver

[Stefano Sabatini]

Hi,

do you know if this can be implemented in ffserver?

I see we have httpauth.{hc} files in libavformat, and I wonder if they
can be used to add authentication username/password based support in
ffserver.

It could work something like this:
<Stream>
...
Auth USERNAME:PASSWORD
Auth USERNAME:PASSWORD
...
</Stream>

so that specific users can gain access to the stream.

Suggestions about how to implement it or pointers to specifications
are also appreciated.
