    I've commited a bit changed version of this patch in 7645ad2, which will end up in 0.6.

    Hmm, I wanted to add this, but it seems a bit redunant for the generic disable authentication setting (which also works for streams in the upcoming 0.5.2 release). Any reason why you want to enable authentication on the API but disable it on streams?

    Hi
    Should the authentication setting also work for streams in version 0.5.2 as you said?
    Win8 x64, IIS 8, Mpextended 0.5.2, Webmediaportal IIS 0.5.2.

    I have disabled authentication in mpextended configurator. If I open a http-streaming-profile in vlc on my other pc with this syntax "http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/Stream/TV?item=xx&transcoder=profile" I get no picture and this in webmediaportal.log.

    Code:
    2013-01-13 21:18:32.49342 [(5)] WARN: User  (host 192.168.4.4) requested a stream but isn't authenticated - denying access to stream

    But if I open with this syntax "http://user:password@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/Stream/TV?item=xx&transcoder=profile" in vlc it works and I can stream the channel.

    Hmm, you're right. I had only fixed it in the service, not in WebMP. I'll fix that for 0.5.3 ;)
