Hold on.  You said before that if your “ServerMediaSession” contained only the 
“ServerMediaSubsession” for audio, but not the “ServerMediaSubsession” for 
video, then your media player (RTSP client) was able to play the audio OK.  Is 
that still the case?

If that’s the case, then it’s unlikely that “every player [you] use” is now 
(for the combined audio+video session) telling you that "it's corrupted and 
doesn't understand the compression”.  Instead, it’s more likely that the 
problem is something about your *combination* of the audio and video streams, 
not the audio stream (or the video stream) per se.

My guess is that the problem is that your audio and video streams have wildly 
different presentation times, which would come about if your audio and video 
sources have clocks that are badly out of sync.

So, my suggestion is to make sure that:
        1/ Your Axis encoder (that contains the server that’s generating the 
back-end audio stream),
and
        2/ The computer for your RTSP server
have clocks that are roughly ‘in sync’ - i.e., generate similar ‘wall clock’ 
times (the times that you’d get by calling “gettimeofday()”)

OK, but the audio (PCM u-law) is still valid (PCM u-law), because the following 
still produces a playable audio file:
        ffmpeg -f mulaw -ar 8000 -ac 1 -i audio-PCMU-2 test.wav

(In any case, we’re now approaching the limit for how much support I can 
continue to give to your project ‘for free’ on this mailing list…)
