Bug 255731: multimedia/vlc VLsub hangs when downloading subtitles
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=255731



--- Description ---
Trying to download a subtitle (by hash or by name) with VLsub never finish.
The error with vlc -vvv is :

    lua generic warning: Error while running script
/usr/local/lib/vlc/lua/extensions/VLSub.luac, function (null)():
lua/extensions/VLSub.lua:1441: VLC lua error in file lua/libs/stream.c line 117
(function vlclua_directory_stream_new)
    lua generic warning: Could not translate click


VLC version is 3.0.12, VLsub is 0.11.1 (found with Control-M). A github issue
suggests adding more compile flags to solve the issue :
