FYI, it's now LIVE555.COM.

No, there's no existing code in the libraries to do this.  If you 
want to add this, I suggest supporting the RTP payload format 
described in the IETF RFC 4103 
<ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc4103.txt>, as that is the 
closest thing to a standard for streaming time-synchronized text.

To implement this, you would need to write your own subclass of 
"MultiFramedRTPSink" for sending the text, and your own subclass of 
"MultiFramedRTPSource" for receiving it.
