Are you sure that RTP/RTCP packets sent by server arrive to client? Most
problably they are dropped by your provider. Without them nothing can be
played. RTSP(tcp) is used only to start and control the stream and seems to work,
but the true stream is in RTP(udp) packets, and RTCP(udp) is used to provide quality
information of the RTP flow.
