Stream address parsing error: net/url invalid userinfo

[footswitch]

Certain combinations of user/password can't be parsed because of special characters such as { }
The stream address returns the following message:
mse: streams: parse "rtsp://username:p{assword@ip_address:554/Streaming/Channels/101": net/url: invalid userinfo

Current workaround: change user/password combination to avoid certain special characters
This was the search result that led me to try changing the password:
