I'm not sure what you mean by "rtspd", but I assume that it is your 
RTSP server binary, similar to the "testOnDemandRTSPServer" demo program.

If you wish to build only a RTSP server, and not a RTSP client, then 
you can probably remove the following from the "liveMedia" library
         RTSPClient.o
         DarwinInjector.o
         All "*RTPSource.o" (*except* "RTPSource.o"; you must keep this)
         AVIFileSink.o
         QuickTimeFileSink.o
         MediaSession.o

You can also remove "*RTPSink.o", "*ServerMediaSubsession.o" and 
"*Framer.o" for any media types that you are *not* planning to serve.
