You can't do this; it's the server that decides whether or not a 
stream is multicast or unicast.  It specifies this in its response to 
the initial RTSP "DESCRIBE" command (and it's not something that the 
client can change in its subsequent "SETUP" command).

If you want the client to chose between unicast and multicast, then 
you could support this by adding two different "ServerMediaSession" 
objects to your server: One that has "PassiveServerMediaSubsession" 
object(s) for subsession(s), and one that has 
"OnDemandServerMediaSubsession" (subclass) object(s) for 
subsession(s).  These two "ServerMediaSession" objects would have 
different names, and each client could choose either multicast or 
unicast, depending on the name (which would be used at the end of the 
"rtsp://" URL.)
