You should first verify that the *unmodified* “testH264VideoStreamer” (sic) 
application code works OK for you.  Then, and only then, should you modify the 
supplied code.

The library code is correct.  Note that port numbers are stored (in the “Port” 
class; see “groupsock/include/NetAddress.hh”) in network byte order.  That’s 
why the implementation of "RTSPServer::rtspURLPrefix()” calls “ntohs()” on the 
port number before putting it into a “rtsp://“ URL.

Therefore - assuming that the “ntohs()” (etc.) functions are working correctly 
on your system - the problem must be in the way that you are giving your RTSP 
server its port number.  Note that the code for “testH264VideoStreamer” (and 
other applications that create RTSP servers) call “RTSPServer::createNew()”, 
passing the port number parameter as an integer in host order (e.g., 554 or 
8554).  You should do the same in your application.

You’ll note, however, that “RTSPServer::createNew()” actually takes a “Port” 
object as parameter.  If you instead give it an integer as parameter (as all of 
the application examples do), then this integer will be automatically converted 
to a “Port” object.  This is done using the “Port()” constructor that’s defined 
in “groupsock/include/NetAddress.hh”, line 96 (and implemented (in 
“groupsock/NetAddress.cpp”) by calling “htons()” on the integer parameter, 
before storing it (in network byte order).
