Dear Maintainer,
This report includes two bugs and one related enhancement request--
*bug (functional)*
ATM supplying a "-S" without an URL causes cclive to hang, which is
a bug. Even though the syntax is wrong, it should print an error
message, not hang.
*bug (documentation)*
The manpage shows this:
] REPORTING BUGS
] Report bugs to the cclive-devel mailing list
<cclive-de...@lists.sourceforge.net>
] where the development and the maintenance is primarily done.
] You do not have to be subscribed to the list to send a message
there.
That mailing list is dead. There has been no activity for months
according to the archives, and the final months that have posts are
spam. The list seems to no longer be accepting messages, hence why
the bug report herein is sent to debian when really these are
upstream issues.
*enhancement request*
Stream IDs like "small_3gpp_i36_180p" are a bit cryptic (although an
improvement over past versions), and it's very difficult to find
documentation on them. Even knowing that I need a
"QUVI_MEDIA_STREAM_PROPERTY_ID" as well as what some of the IDs look
like, web searches for this information is frustrating and futile.
Please put a reference in the manpage to where users can get a list
of stream IDs -- or perhaps even better, smarten the "-S" command so
that it lists all known stream IDs with descriptions if no URL is
supplied (which would fix the above mentioned bug).
Thank you!
