Note that this partial proxy support was only really applicable to
non-flash streams. rtmpdump doesnt use any of the getiplayer proxy
settings. The tsocks wrapper (or equivalent) solution is the only way
to make rtmpdump use a proxy. VPN is easier. I've used the ssh -D and
tsocks solution and it works well in my experience. I didn't find a
windows equivalent that worked well.
