[Live-devel] HELP - AMR support using RTSP

I hope you mean: *extend* the RTSP streaming support in the VLC player 
application.  (VLC has been using the LIVE.COM code to implement RTSP 
(client) streaming for more than a year now.)

Probably not.  But one thing you could try is run "openRTSP" 
<http://www.live.com/openRTSP/> as your client, to see if it records a 
proper AMR audio file from the stream.  (Note that "openRTSP" uses exactly 
the same LIVE.COM RTSP client implementation that VLC uses.)  If "openRTSP" 
records AMR audio data correctly, then the problem is unlikely to be in the 
LIVE.COM code.

It's not clear that any changes need to be made to the LIVE.COM code, but 
possibly some changes need to be made to the "livedotcom.cpp" VLC 
module.  If so, you will need to discuss this with the VLC developers (as 
"livedotcom.cpp" is their code).
