However, this might take a long time (possibly a very long time), depending upon the particular TCP implementation, especially if the server is not currently sending data (e.g., it had received a RTSP "PAUSE" command beforehand). > Are you aware of any specifications (based on alternate configuration) that > remove the obligation of the RTCP (or noop message) keepalives? No, and note that RTCP "RR" packets can useful in their own right (for statistics); not just as a 'keepalive'. Ross Finlayson Live Networks, Inc. http://www.live555.com/
