Is there already a plugin that can open http video stream? If not, how hard would it be to code one? Is there a plugin that I should use as a starting point? Thank you

I’m not aware of any plugins that allow user-definable HTTP-Streams. It shouldn’t be too hard for you to hard code the url in a basic plugin. The [plugin kickstarter](http://dev.plexapp.com/tools/plugin_kickstart/) is a good place to start.
