This patch adds support for: - ffplay ipfs://<cid> - ffplay ipns://<cid> IPFS data can be played from so called "ipfs gateways". A gateway is essentially a webserver that gives access to the distributed IPFS network. This protocol support (ipfs and ipns) therefore translates ipfs:// and ipns:// to a http:// url. This resulting url is then handled by the http protocol. It could also be https depending on the gateway provided. To use this protocol, a gateway must be provided. If you do nothing it will try to find it in your $HOME/.ipfs/gateway file. The ways to set it manually are: 1. Define a -gateway <url> to the gateway. 2. Define $IPFS_GATEWAY with the full http link to the gateway. 3. Define $IPFS_PATH and point it to the IPFS data path. 4. Have IPFS running in your local user folder (under $HOME/.ipfs).
