> A part of the issue is that e.g. when using VLC on mobile devices as a client
Out of curiosity, what VLC iPhone 'app' are you using? 'GoodPlayer'? Or your own custom iOS app? > the user does not know that the attempt to play the stream has failed OK, beforehand you didn't say that this (the server seeing an incoming RTCP-over-TCP '$' 'packet' and responding "Method not allowed") was causing whole connections to fail. I'm curious about why that is happening. Is this because the "Method not allowed" response is being seen as a response to the "PLAY" command (because it's being sent back before the "PLAY" response)? (Because I would have thought that any client that received an arbitrary "Method not allowed" RTSP response after having already received a successful "PLAY" response would be able to handle that OK.) > I will implement the first suggestion as an intermediary fix then and if it > works we will contribute the patch back to live555.
