	I sent this message to Marton Balint too.

	Roger and Tom, thanks for replying. The commit which introduces
the delay to start the RTSP stream is this one:

3166a6fc379789b3782f431dd232033c2069c443 is the first bad commit
commit 3166a6fc379789b3782f431dd232033c2069c443

    ffplay: if there is no audio stream, use external clock by default
    
    Otherwise playing the video could be much slower than realtime if the system
    can't decode or display the frames fast enough.

	The problem is: Marton Balint knows about it, but he's taking
too long to fix it. Is there some other developer interested in this bug?

	To sum up: after this commit, ffplay takes 10 seconds to start
the stream. As the description says, it is for streams without audio, but even 
that is wrong because ffplay is not detecting the audio stream also.

	But if you could fix the delay to start, it would be great!

	Thanks.
