 Http basic auth passwords which are now embedded in the external music
 streaming URLs ([25375]), require urlencoding so that passwords with
 special characters (at least '@') would work. Attached patch has a fix for
 this.

 This fixes streaming with WinAmp, but it seems that xmms still doesn't
 like passwords with encoded special chars. As discussed in IRC, MythWeb
 might still need a setting which tells whether to embed the auth info to
 URLs or not.

 I've tested this patch with only music streaming, not videos.
