I implement fast forward, and reverse play, and stepping forward and backward, 
but I do it from a buffer on the client.
I thought Reverse required a buffer.

Can rtsp stream backwards,  By gop obviously, since diffframes depend on 
keyframe

Subject: Re: [Live-devel] Scaling a H264 elementary stream

Yes, this seems like a good way to implement fast-forward and slow-motion, 
provided that (1) the network and receiver can handle the increased bitrate 
when you increase the scale factor - as you noted, and (2) the receiver can 
properly handle frames that arrive at an 'unusual' frame rate.  By that, I mean 
that H.264 "SPS" NAL units often contain parameters (specifically, 
'num_units_in_tick' and 'time_scale') that imply a particular frame rate.  Some 
receivers might get confused if frames arrive at a different frame rate.  
(However, you have apparently found that VLC handles these streams OK.)
