 Priority:  Normal                       |  Milestone:
Component:  ports                        |    Version:  2.2.1
 Keywords:  mediainfo curl with-libcurl  |       Port:  mediainfo
-----------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 After installing mediainfo via MacPorts some while ago I noticed that by
 default only local files can be viewed, which makes it rather useless for
 me, because I'm using it mainly to check recorded tv-streams on a Dreambox
 via it's web-interface.

 Since than, I switched to a manual compilation/installation (which I
 usually try to avoid) using the '''--with-libcurl''' configuration option
 of 'MediaInfoLib', by editing the 'CLI_Compile.sh'. Since this is one of
 the few tools that I couldn't use with a MacPorts installation, wouldn't
 it be better to include the libcurl support either by default or as a new
 variant?

 And another idea for a new variant:[[BR]]
 Besides that I'm only using the CLI version of the program anyway, maybe
 for some others a variant for the GUI built could become useful.

 ... and btw the most recent version is 0.7.67

 Thanks in advance
