Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ffmpeg

Description: ffmpeg (of gutsy)  3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu4 is unable to
read a flv video from http but the same file first copied to disk and
then played works ok.

Important: this bug has is no more in the current cvs ffmpeg, so it is
in still in gutsy only because it uses a 'old' version of ffmpeg.

How to reproduce the bugs:
* Read a flv video from http via a ffmpeg video player (ffplay, vlc, mplayer)
** say the video of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWIrxuF5NSo
** mplayer http://lax-v98.lax.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=nWIrxuF5NSo
*** this will refuse to play the video
** wget -O /tmp/bla.flv 
http://lax-v98.lax.youtube.com/get_video?video_id=nWIrxuF5NSo for 30second and 
then ctrl-c
** then mplayer /tmp/bla.flv will play the video

i tried the same steps with ffplay from ffmpeg cvs and it can read the
video from http

** Affects: ffmpeg (Ubuntu)
