That’s not correct.  RTP/RTCP works just fine across a NAT, provided (of 
course) that the NAT is set up to forward the appropriate port number(s) for 
RTP and RTCP.

However, *RTSP* (the streaming media control protocol) does not (in general) 
work across NATs - especially if the RTSP server is on a private network.

Therefore, if you have a RTSP server, you should put it on the ‘real’ public 
Internet - not on a private network behind a NAT.
