[Libav-user] I can not play mjpeg streams via ffplay

[Mert Gedik]

I've tried to open below stream with both 1.0 ffplay and 1.2 ffplay. But
both can not play that stream, there were shown below logs in terminal when
try to play..

(ffplay tries to connect/get data for 15-20 seconds then it timeouts with
below log.)

mert-gediks-macbook-4:ffmpeg-1.2 Gedik$ ./ffplay

Actually, ffplay is a very advanced player which can play almost
everything, so I did miss sth when trying to play a basic mjpeg stream,
could someone guide me for this topic?

If I did everything right,
Is this a known situation or is a known bug ?
Is this a bug, is there any patch or workaround to fix this issue?
