FYI, VLC <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/> is a better player than 
either of these two.

Note the "-e 10" that I suggested originally.  That told "openRTSP" 
to record only the first 10 seconds of the stream.  If you omit this, 
then it will record the entire stream - which you should then be able 
to stream in its entirety.

Of course not - because you are streaming a video file only.
