Because our RTSP client does not contain a codec, and thus does not decode (or 
otherwise process in any way) H.264 video data, it doesn’t do anything with 
these (other than what it normally does - e.g., output them to a decoder, or to 
a file).

If, however, our RTSP client (e.g., if used as a library in a media player 
application) happens to *feed* incoming H.264 data to a decoder (the only thing 
that actually processes H.264 NALUs), then this decoder may wish to signal the 
RTSP, client if it sees a EOS NALU.

(In any case, our RTSP client will close the stream when it detects an end of 
the RTSP TCP connection, or if it sees a RTCP “BYE” packet.  But all of this 
happens at a higher level than H.264 video, which our client does not actually 
process.)
