When I run the media server, it says it is unable to
determine my ip address:
------------------------------------------
$ live555MediaServer
LIVE555 Media Server
version 0.42 (LIVE555 Streaming Media library version 2010.04.09).
Play streams from this server using the URL
rtsp://0.0.0.0:8554/<filename>
where <filename> is a file present in the current directory.
Each file's type is inferred from its name suffix:
".aac" => an AAC Audio (ADTS format) file
".amr" => an AMR Audio file
".m4e" => a MPEG-4 Video Elementary Stream file
".dv" => a DV Video file
".mp3" => a MPEG-1 or 2 Audio file
".mpg" => a MPEG-1 or 2 Program Stream (audio+video) file
".ts" => a MPEG Transport Stream file
(a ".tsx" index file - if present - provides server 'trick
play' support)
".wav" => a WAV Audio file
See http://www.live555.com/mediaServer/ for additional documentation.

That is indeed strange.
Not really. The code uses multicast to (try to) figure out the
host's IP address. This error is usually caused by not having IP
multicast configured properly on your system.
Make sure that you have a route for 224.0.0/4
Can it not use at least 127.0.0.1 ?
Yes, you could - but if you're a server, you really want an IP
address that other computers can reach.
Also, when I try to play a file:
$ ffplay
'rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/f/tmp1/01-Invocation_(Sri_Rudram_Lagunyasam).wav'
the playback is so horribly slow, with long silence between each 2
seconds of sound,
The problem may be with "ffplay", not with our server. However,
"ffplay" is not our software, so if you have any questions about
"ffplay", you'll need to ask them on another mailing list.
I suggest that you try using VLC <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/> as a
client instead.
