#10696: UPnP does not work with 2012 Samsung Smart PVRs

I recently bought a Samsung BD-E8500, and it does not work with the MythTV
UPnP server. It returns an error, and it is not possible to browse. I am
running MythTV 0.25.
I ran Wireshark to listen to the packets being sent by the Samsung PVR,
and it looks like that it is adding an extra / to the beginning of the
requests. e.g. :
{{{
POST //CDS_Control HTTP/1.1
}}}
MythTV returns a 404 Not Found to this request, which causes the PVR to
give up.
I don't know if this is the correct fix, but I added some code to method
{{{
HTTPRequest::ProcessRequestLine( const QString &sLine )
}}}
at line 1124 (just after m_sBaseUrl is assigned and before line
'm_sResourceUrl = m_sBaseUrl;') :
{{{
// Samsung Smart PVR puts 2 / at the start of the request
if(m_sBaseUrl.startsWith(QString("//"))) {
m_sBaseUrl.remove(0,1);
}
}}}
This seemed to work and I am now able to use my Samsung PVR with MythTV
UPnP.
