streaming web page from the CLI

[Glenn K0LNY]

Storm or anyone,
Is this the correct format for MPV?
I'll put GlennPSWD as my password and 1234 as the username:

mpv --quiet https://1234:Glennspswd@
https://www.broadcastify.com/webPlayer/30172/web

Then I will try to make a script which I have never done before in Linux and 
put it in local.rc.
I've never done any of this, so bear with me please.
Glenn

Howdy Glenn,

Mpv may be able to do what you want. Try something like this:

mpv --quiet 'https://username:password@url'
