The same thing.  You have a ‘middlebox’ somewhere between your client and your 
server that is either blocking these RTCP “RR” packets (from the client) from 
reaching the server.

To see what UDP ports are involved, look at the response to the RTSP “SETUP” 
command.  (If your stream contains both an audio track and a video track, then 
there will be one of these for each track.) For example, if response to a 
“SETUP command is:
        RTSP/1.0 200 OK
        CSeq: 4
        Date: Tue, Nov 03 2015 22:15:51 GMT
        Transport: 
RTP/AVP;unicast;destination=133.93.96.43;source=4.79.217.242;client_port=51384-51385;server_port=6970-6971
        Session: E3F2FB49;timeout=65 
then:
        - RTP packets (from the server to the client) will be sent from port 
6970 to port 51384
        - RTCP “SR” packets (from the server to the client) will be sent from 
port 6971 to port 51385
        - RTCP “RR” packets (from the client to the server) will be sent from 
port 51385 to port 6971

Note that RTSP/RTP cannot be expected to work if you have NAT (Network Address 
and/or Port Translation) happening between your client and server.  I.e., your 
client and server should be sharing the same address/port space.  However, if 
your ‘middlebox’ is only a firewall - not a NAT - then you should be able to 
get it to work by unblocking appropriate UDP ports.
