If your server doesn't support RTSP, then there seems to be little 
point in using "openRTSP" as a model for your client, because RTSP is 
most of what "openRTSP" does.

Instead, you can just use "testMPEG1or2VideoReceiver" as a model. 
Just use a "SimpleRTPSource" instead of a "MPEG1or2VideoRTPSource". 
See line 751 of "liveMedia/MediaSession.cpp" for an example of how to 
use this.
