Until your server receives another RTSP command, the only way you'll 
return from select() is with a timeout, specifying some delayed task 
that needs to be performed.  If you are streaming your UDP data 
properly, this delayed task will have been generated by the call to 
"scheduleDelayedTask\" - in "BasicUDPSink.cpp", line 94.

I suggest checking whether the call to "scheduleDelayedTask()" in in 
"BasicUDPSink.cpp", line 94 is actually occurring, and, if so, 
whether "uSecondsToGo" has a reasonable value.
