Does it really? (I couldn't find the code which does this.) From my basic knowledge of HTTP, I don't see why one would retry without actually changing something about the authentication. > Is there a way to have ffmpeg reattempt to connect to stream X amount of > times, regardless of responses or repeated failures? Why should a "permission denied" go away after several attempts? I think you would be trying to abuse ffmpeg for working around a substantial server issue (or else doing a DoS). I think you would have to make a proprietary hack of ffmpeg's code to get this behavior.
