This sounds like a problem with your OS.  If you're running Windows, 
I suggest that you upgrade to version 2006.09.18 or later of the 
"LIVE555 Streaming Media" code, and recompile.  If that still doesn't 
work, then - if you're running an old version of Windows - you may 
need to upgrade to Windows XP for this to work.

If you're not running Windows, then I don't know what might be wrong 
(although it's probably still an OS problem).
