Bug#466323: vlc: radio broken with Free.fr "multiposte"

[Jeremie Bouttier]

Package: vlc
Version: 0.8.6.c-6
Severity: normal

The French ISP Free allows to receive several TV and radio channels directly on the 
PC, and the recommended way is to use VLC. One has to download a playlist 
(http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/freeboxtv/playlist.m3u) containing URLs for the different 
channels.

Since a recent upgrade, radio support is broken : clicking a channel in the 
playlist does not select the correct stream (one hears another radio instead). This 
might be related to the following change :

    - Disable m3u EXTVLCOPT parsing if no command line option is specified
      (--m3u-extvlcopt) to prevent browser plugins to control stream output
      and thus overwriting arbitrary files of the user running vlc
      (sec-vlcopt_support.diff).

Indeed the m3u entry for a radio makes use of EXTVLCOPT, for instance :
  #EXTINF:0,10027 - RFI
  #EXTVLCOPT:ts-es-id-pid
  #EXTVLCOPT:no-video
  #EXTVLCOPT:audio-track-id=1011
  rtsp://mafreebox.freebox.fr/freeboxtv/stream?id=110027

Adding --m3u-extvlcopt does not fix the issue.

Meanwhile, the VLC package in Etch works correctly.
