Could RTMP link information be added to the live stream page text?

Hi all

On the main site streamer page you see the links to Members and repeaters.
Clicking on one of them (to me) shows "Enable Adobe Flash to view this low-latency stream". Could you put a link under the video that shows the rtmp stream (it just needs to be rtmp://rtmp.batc.org.uk/live/{callsign}) and whichever app handles it, such as VLC, can grab the stream and start displaying it instantly.

The source for the page would only need a tiny alteration as the information is already stored in the JSON field 'json.stream_output_url' so it would be a simple matter to add a hardcoded string. The part of the webpage that handles this is at around line 479, "jQuery(document).ready(function($)"

If you added a new id into the HTML source such as <span id="rtmpstream"></span> on the stream active line then you could use
$("#rtmpstream").html('<a href="' + json.stream_output_url + '">RTMP stream</a>');

I hope this gets added, but until that time I am willing to do this manually to get the most realtime stream.
