As others have noted, you shouldn’t really focus on ‘telling a client to switch
streams’; there’s no standard mechanism for this (probably for good reason).
1/ If you are streaming just to one client, then it’s better to have the
*server* adapt the parameters of the stream (e.g., based on RTCP
It seems I didn't express myself clearly enough.
In the approach I suggested a continuous valid standard-conformant RTP
stream is sent to the client,
so your existing RTSP player will be able to play back the stream. You
don't need to redirect the client
to another RTSP stream.
On the server side
In general though it appears as though there's nothing that "standard RTSP
players" respect, right? Whatever we do we will most likely need to write

There's no standard mechanism for that as far as I know.
It is possible to implement what you want us
