Hello all,

Windows (8) Store application's do not have access to winsock, which is needed 
to support liveMedia (mostly the BSD socket functions).  Win8 applications only 
have access to Windows Runtime Socket COM classes: 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/br212061.aspx

I've started a project here (http://winrtsock.codeplex.com/) for a windows 
runtime winsock façade.  It's still in the very early stages (read: 
experimental), but liveMedia currently is able to stream RTSP (UDP/TCP) from a 
Win Store App with this.  The only code change needed was replacing the winsock 
include to "#include <winrtsock.h>".

I don't have the listen/accept methods finished yet to host an RTSP servers but 
hope to get that in there soon!

Just thought I'd share as others may want to use this great RTSP library on the 
win8 platform.

Thanks,

-Jeremiah Morrill
