No, at least, not as far as the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" software is 
concerned.

Without knowing more about your software, it's hard to say for 
sure.  But, from your description, I suspect that you've run up 
against some operating system-specific limitation somewhere (e.g., 
maximum number of open files and/or sockets).  If that's the case, 
you may be able to reconfigure your OS to overcome this problem.
