The “testOnDemandRTSPServer” command doesn’t take any command-line argument.  
Instead, it assumes that the file that it wants to stream is located in the 
current directory.  I suggest typing:
        cd C:\Users\Lobna\Downloads\live.2017.01.26\live\testProgs
then:
        testonDemandRTSPServer

However, the error message that you got suggests some sort of problem with your 
Windows firewall.

Make sure that - initially - you run “openRTSP” on the same computer as 
“testOnDemandRTSPServer”.  Only once that works should you try running 
“openRTSP” on a different computer.

Huh?  How could you not know this?  “testOnDemandRTSPServer” is, of course, the 
RTSP server.  “openRTSP” is, of course, the RTSP client.
