[Live-devel] some clarifications on code/API

The application is called "openRTSP"; see <http://www.live555.com/openRTSP/>

No, if you're only *reading* a RTSP/RTP stream, you don't need 
"DarwinInjector" at all.

No, there's no way to do this, unfortunately.

I don't understand this question, but I think the answer is "no", 
because we do not include (or use) any codecs (encoding or decoding software).
