FYI, the way I would integrate the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" code 
with a scripting language would be to write (in C/C++) a new subclass 
of "TaskScheduler" (and perhaps "UsageEnvironment") that interacted 
with the scripting language's own event mechanism, so that scripting 
language events could, if necessary, be handled by LIVE555 code - and 
vice versa.

I'm not sure if that is your first or second approach :-)  (I don't 
know anything about how Python deals with events.)
