Ok Ross, one more question... Can openRTSP cope with a variable
framerate stream?  If, for example, my encoding hardware can't keep up
and is sending out a stream that changes framerates, is it possible that
openRTSP would produce a file that plays at the wrong speed?

The problem is not openRTSP, or RTP/RTSP in general. The problem is the ".mp4"/".mov" file format. This file format is badly designed for what openRTSP is trying to do: record - into the file - incoming RTP streams. The code - for recording into ".mp4"/".mov" files - assumes that the frame rate is fixed (and specified in advance with the "-f" flag to openRTSP). If the frame rate is actually variable, then I'm not sure the resulting file will play properly.

If, however, your stream really does have a fixed frame rate, but packets just happen to be sent at non-fixed intervals, then that should be OK.
