Bug Description

When accessing a MMS MRL, xine tries first to connect to server on TCP
port 1750. If that fails, it falls back to HTTP, but without using the
proxy given in the configuration file. This makes it impossible to
access these MRLs if TCP port 80 has been blocked for outgoing traffic.

thanks.

Actually, it's libxine's mms plugin that does the connection to the MMS
server...
