[FFmpeg-user] Does ffplay suport websocket-flv stream playing directly.

[Hongyi Zhao]

Hi,

I'm currently test the <https://github.com/illuspas/Node-Media-Server>
project, and failed to play the websocket-flv stream with ffplay as
below:

I'm not sure what's the root cause of this problem, more specifically,
I want to know if I can use ffplay to play websocket-FLV streams
directly, as I mentioned above.
