VLC detects wrong codec

    • Closed Issue created by dev.faz @dev.faz

    Hello,

    currently trying to setup an ampache, so I would like to use the streaming-features of both to play my music, but VLC is not detecting the correct codec. I'm using OGG but it looks like VLC is not reading the answer-headers, instead it's relying on file-name/url?

    Here an example:

    cvlc --verbose 2 'http://192.168.101.3/ampache/play/index.php?ssid=2d3df4549fe148ca387227baa6b8195c&type=song&oid=2215&uid=2&name=/Samu.l%20-%20Have%20It%20Like%20That%20%28Original%20Mix%29.mp3'

    VLC detected an MPGA-stream, but it's an OGG. If I just add some garbage to the end of the URL f.e. "&vlc=rulez", it's working like a charm.
