I'm developing a Live555-based client application that has to connect to a server that sends MPEG2 TS streams without RTP encapsulation (directly over UDP): is there a way to pass some configuration flag or similar to Live555 classes to avoid getting data through RTP?
It's the server that decides what kind of stream it wants to send. I.e., the server's SDP description for the stream - that it returns in response to the client's RTSP "DESCRIBE" command - will describe whether or not the stream is sent via raw UDP, or via RTP.
Unfortunately, however, there's no standard for how a raw UDP stream is described in SDP (in part because such streams are a bad idea; e.g., with such a stream, you can't recover from misordered packets). Nonetheless, our client code understands some common ways that a server might describe such a stream, and handles it accordingly.
So, please let us know how your server describes such a stream. E.g., please send us the output from running "openRTSP" to try to play/record the stream.
