LibVLC 3.x how to open stream described by SDP file or stream containing credentials

Question

Im using libVLC to playback video in my application, to open local files im using: libvlc_media_new_path(path_to_file); to open stream im using: libvlc_media_new_location(media_location) it works for most stream addresses, but i can't play streams containing SDP file in address, for example: http://192.168.10.17/live.sdp (its stream in my local network) also i can't player stream containing credentials like rtsp://user:[email protected]:8081 VLC application can play both stream without sweat. So anyone knows how to open sdp file using libVLC and how to open stream with credentials in address in libVLC? am i missing any methods? thanks JavaScript questions and answers, JavaScript questions pdf, JavaScript question bank, JavaScript questions and answers pdf, mcq on JavaScript pdf, JavaScript questions and solutions, JavaScript mcq Test , Interview JavaScript questions, JavaScript Questions for Interview, JavaScript MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions)

As a general rule, when you don't know how to do something with LibVLC, but you know how to it with the VLC app (and it works), open the logging windows (Tools => Messages), enable debug logging and reproduce your operation. The logs will tell you a story. Now for authentication matters, I think you can provide the credentials directly in the URL (see how VLC does it, from the logs) and you can also probably implement libvlc_dialog_post_login which is raised by LibVLC when auth creds are required.
