I can't connect anymore to an acti camera using latest version of live555.
I don't know since which version exactly it doesn't work.

1- output of new version not working :

2- output of an old working version :

OK, I found the problem with this camera: It is sending back a bad "Range:" header in its response to the RTSP "PLAY" command:
        Range: ntp=0.000-
This is wrong.  It should be "npt", not "ntp".

You should contact the camera's manufacturer, asking them to fix their camera's RTSP server.

By the way, you were incorrect when you said that a previous version of our code (2009.07.27, according to your "working.txt" log) handled this camera correctly. As far as I can tell, we have *never* accepted a "Range:" header that says "ntp" instead of "npt". You must have hacked your own version of the code to accept this (broken) "Range:" header, and then forgotten about it.

(The Sanyo camera, however, was behaving correctly. I have now installed a new version (2010.06.18) of our code that will support it once again. This new version also prints a more meaningful error when it sees the bad "Range:" line returned by the "acti" camera.)
