The remaining piece of the puzzle for me deals with a web client that I have written that provides interaction with the live stream. I am trying to get a timestamp back from the media server to the client, and ultimately available to a Javascript function on the page. I can formulate a RTSP request from the client in the form of a URL that triggers an internal method in the media server which provides the current timestamp. How can I get this time stamp back to the client?

What exactly is this "timestamp" supposed to be? You realize, I hope, that every RTP packet sent by the server (and received by the client) already has a timestamp, which gets mapped to an accurate "presentation time" that the client software (e.g., VLC) sees.

I'm working on trying to "send" back a response w/ the timestamp via the RTSP session

If you're trying to do something that's outside the RTSP/RTP/RTCP standard, then this probably isn't a good idea.
