The following work - currently underway in the IETF - might be relevant here.  
(If so, you should adopt it and/or contribute to this effort.)
        http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-avtcore-clksrc-01
(If/when this work becomes an IETF standard, I will update the LIVE555 code to 
support this new "ts-refclk" SDP attribute, if requested.)

Yes, however - although I have (reluctantly) implemented some non-standard 
attributes that are already in widespread use, I am disinclined to support 
*new* non-standard SDP attributes; only those SDP attributes that get defined 
as parts of new IETF standards.  Sorry.

That would be for your RTSP client.  What about your RTSP server?  It would 
also need to generate these new SDP attribute(s).  (Is your RTSP server not 
also implemented using our code?  If not, why not? :-)

But anyway, as noted above, modifying our code solely to make it easier for 
people to use non-standard SDP attributes is not a priority for me.
