[Live-devel] RTSP Server 'Keep Alive' support

[Glen Gray]

Hey Guys,

Wondering if the liveMedia/RTSPServer.cpp code has support for 'Keep 
Alive' functionality ?

I see from the source code that it accepts the GET_PARAMETER calls and 
responds to the client, but doesn't seem to do anything regarding the 
session. I assume this means that KeepAlive isn't enforced and is simply 
sending a dummy response to keep some clients happy ?

What happens in the situation where a client is killed without doing a 
TEARDOWN and then re-establishes a connection ? My experience has been 
with Kasenna's which didn't handle this well and simply created a second 
stream to the same IP resulting in a corrupted playback experience.
