Yes, our software implements the IETF’s RTP/RTCP standard (including the RTP 
payload formats for several common video and audio codecs).

We have several demo applications (in source code form) that you can try, as 
well as a pre-built RTSP server application.  See 
http://live555.com/liveMedia/#testProgs

(In particular, you can run our “openRTSP” command-line client application with 
the “-Q” option, to report ‘quality of service’ stats; see
