A slight correction here. There are two kinds of 'over-TCP' streaming: RTP-over-RTSP, and RTP-over-HTTP. RTP-over-RTSP reuses the (single) TCP channel that the RTSP protocol used to set up the stream. RTP-over-HTTP uses a pair of TCP channels - set up using HTTP “GET” and “POST” commands - to run RTSP (and then RTP-over-RTSP is used to stream the RTP packets over the “GET” channel). But Warren’s correct in saying that it’s the client - not the server - that decides what type of streaming happens.
