Was it intended to be

+        stream_control(demuxer->stream, STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE, &size);

instead of

+        stream_control(muxer->stream, STREAM_CTRL_GET_SIZE, &size)

in the libmpdemux/demux_lavf.c chunk of the attached patch? Otherwise
the MPlayer compilation fails with

If I make the compiler happy as described above, the resulting patched
MPlayer works at least with growing files from youtube-dl flawlessly,
which unpatched MPlayer does not. Will test more.

Thanks,
