I don't know why the DSS is returning a "404 Not Found" response; you 
may end up needing to ask about this on a DSS-related mailing list.

Note, however, that you really don't need to be using a DSS at 
all.  Instead, you could stream directly from LIVE.COM code.  Note, 
in particular, the "testOnDemandRTSPServer" demo application, which 
can be used to stream a MPEG-4 Video Elementary Stream file named 
"test.m4v" by unicast, on-demand, using RTSP.  If you use this 
application, you should be able to stream the file directly to your 
your '3G' phone, without involving a DSS at all.
