stream still only plays for a few seconds, then quits. Am I the only
one?


Plays OK in my few months old VLC3 nightly, there was a stutter a few
seconds in which made me think it was going to give the problem you
mentioned, but it didn't happen again when I closed and re-started VLC.


FWIW I tried to access a couple of days ago but got no response. However
I've just tried again, successfully. This is using the same command as I
employed during the test. I just put

xterm -fn 10x20 -sb -rightbar -sl 200 -e "./ffmpeg_r3flactest -i
https://vs-dash-ww-rd-live.bbcfmt.hs...t_manifest.mpd -c
copy new_recording.mkv 2&1 | tee recording_log.txt"

into an executable file and run that.

Note that "ffmpeg_r3flactest" is the filename I gave to a local build of
the version of ffmpeg that can handle this kind of streaming.

The tee into a file lets me check afterwards for any hiccups.
