[rtmpdump] Librtmp connection problem

[chucky]

That was my first thought to but as I wrote rtmpdump.exe worked as 
expected on my install so that sort of narrowed it down to being a 
matter of how I was using librtmp.

But I actually figured it out my self just yesterday. In Windows 
(Winsock2) you have to call WSAStartup bofore using socket functions. 
Librtmp doesn't do this. Rtmpdump (in rtmpdump.c) does it before calling 
RTMP_Init.

After adding these lines into my project it works:
#ifdef WIN32
   WORD version;
   WSADATA wsaData;

   version = MAKEWORD(1, 1);
   return (WSAStartup(version, &wsaData) == 0);
#endif
