provides a challenge for me. The parsed playpath end with a Carriage Return,
Line Feed. This was discussed on the forums.
http://stream-recorder.com/forum/help-getting-greek-channel-work-rtmpdump-t13743.html
A few solutions were offered up, including
- remove CRLF and prepend "mp4:" to playpath
- remove CRLF and append ".mp4" to playpath
- pass a literal Carriage return using Bash and $'\r'
KSV has noted that these solutions are nonstandard and might not be future
proof. I noticed in the MAN this paragraph
> Special characters in values may need to be escaped to prevent

This looks promising, but after trying to append "\0d\0a" or just "\0d", it
appears "not to work".
