I presume you're also redirecting stdout to a file.

It's not clear, but you may be behind a firewall 
that does not pass RTCP packets (or be using a 
brain-damaged server that does not send RTCP 
packets).  If that's the case, then "-y" won't 
work (and the output file won't store any data).

Try running "openRTSP -V -n -q -e 30 
rtsp://mumble > output.mov" and then - if it's 
still not working - send us the stderr output.
