Thank you for your suggestions. I've downloaded the latest source
code and rebuilt it. It is now:
LIVE555 Streaming Media library version 2013.01.03
welcome.wav still doesn't stream, and since file shows:
# file welcome.wav
welcome.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft
PCM, 16 bit, stereo 44100 Hz
and since it plays everywhere I tried it, it would not occur to me
that live555MediaServer might not be able to read it (apparently
generateSDPDescription() in ServerMediaSession.cpp fails and
then I get this: setRTSPResponse("404 File Not Found, Or In
Incorrect Format")).
So, following your hint, I created a streaming video mpg file and
tried that. Worked like a charm, and the output from openRTSP is
exactly perfect for what I want to show.
Still perplexed about the WAV file, but it is no longer important
to my task.
Thanks,
t.
