The one major difference (although there will be many more in the 
future) is that the "LIVE555 Media Server" lets you stream any file 
(residing in the same directory), provided that it has an appropriate 
file name extension (e.g., ".mpg", ".ts", ".mp3"). 
"testOnDemandRTSPServer" streams only a small set of 'hard-wired' 
file names (e.g., "test.mpg", "test.ts", "test.mp3").

In most cases, if you are developing your own unicast on-demand RTSP 
server implementation, you should use the "testOnDemandRTSPServer" 
code as a starting point, because it is simpler to understand and 
work with.  In contrast, the "LIVE555 Media Server" is intended to be 
a complete server product that most people will run 'as is' from the 
pre-supplied binary version (although the source code for this is 
also provided, as a courtesy).
