How to authenticate to remote RTSP source?

Evaluating the capture and playback SDKs and one of the things I'll need to do is play remote videos via RTSP - the server requires HTTP authentication to get access to the streams, though - via VLC if I enter something like this:
rtsp://192.168.0.194/archive/514310857d361
it provides a popup asking for login and password and then the video plays - the playback demo code fails to attach and I can't figure out how to provide the authentication - am I missing something?
thanks.

can you give me a hint as to where the user name and password properties should be applied in your object model? I see nothing obvious off the media player interface (no credential structure or the like) - looking around the code in the SDK provides no obvious routes.
Searching your help for "password" I find only references to the encryption password for encrypted file playback which of course has no relationship to authenticating for RTSP stream playback.

Use the following URL structure as alternative to API:
rtsp://username:password@ip_address:port
