SFTP support on Windows

[ghost]

Could you please make it possible to play files from a SFTP server on Windows? On Linux, it works fine with plain MPV…

It works with baka on linux using the location dialog, the only reason I imagine it might not work is if libssh isn't available on the compiled windows version. Can you confirm that using the format sftp://$user@$host:22/$path in the baka location dialog doesn't work?

@u8sand: That doesn't work with the official Windows builds of Baka-MPlayer, but it works fine on my Linux machine…

In that case, it's most likely as I said. I'll try to recompile it for Windows with the necessary support.

@u8sand: Have you re-compiled it with SFTP support in the mean time? If so, can you share that build? Btw what distro do you use for cross-compiling it for Windows?

@wb9688: I use ArchLinux and the script in the cross_compile directory: https://github.com/u8sand/Baka-MPlayer/tree/master/windows

Though recently most of the relevant AUR packages have been created for the entire build steps of baka, circular dependencies and aur package inconsistencies have made it difficult to use.

The build system we use has its downsides, such as the necessity to completely recompile the entire toolchain when the authors break things. Such is why it will take me still some time to get this built.

I got the release version rebuilt with ssh support (I think), please try it. Unfortunately building the master isn't working for whatever baffling reason, hopefully one which will resolve itself in the near future.

See #231 for more information about my latest cross-compilation adventures.

@u8sand: I've tried it, but it gives the error "File couldn't be opened", while I've typed the path correctly and the permissions are OK.

According to the logs it says that the protocol was not found.

[mpv]: Playing: sftp://josh@192.168.1.2:22/$path
[mpv]: Protocol not found. Make sure ffmpeg/Libav is compiled with networking support.
[mpv]: Failed to open sftp://josh@192.168.1.2:22/$path.

Hmm..
