Yes, of course. Without a SDP description for the stream, how could
QuickTime Player (or any media player) possibly know:
- What multicast address is being used?
- What port number is being used?
- What RTP payload format (i.e., codec) is being used?
A media player needs a SDP description for the stream before it can play
it. As I said before, the best way to get the SDP description is using
RTSP (by opening a "rtsp://" URL).
