[Live-devel] RTSP over UDP

No.  The RTSP server implementation currently requires the RTSP TCP 
connection to remain in place during the session (and all RTSP 
commands for a single stream including and after "SETUP" - must use 
the same connection).

Our RTSP *client* implementation, however, allows the TCP connection 
to be closed sometime after the "PLAY" - and (depending on the 
server) the session may continue.  (However, once the TCP connection 
is closed, no further RTSP commands can be issued for that session.)
