[Live-devel] subclassing RTSPServer

Do you want to add handle new RTSP commands, or change the way that the 
existing RTSP commands ("PLAY", "PAUSE" etc.) are handled.  If it's the 
latter, then the best way to do this is using subclasses of 
"ServerMediaSession" (*not* "RTSPServer").

Note that "ServerMediaSession" already defines virtual functions 
"startStream()", "pauseStream()", etc., with subclasses of 
"ServerMediaSession" implementing these.
