[Live-devel] hang on connect() of sendOptionsCmd with invalid address

[Derk-Jan Hartman]

He Ross,

This is about https://trac.videolan.org/vlc/ticket/1730
It takes a long while before an invalid/non-present address is rejected.

For instance we use: rtsp://10.90.33.109

Now if live555 starts working on that, it hangs on connect() in the  
sendOptionsCmd(). The describeURL does not have this problem. It  
returns quite quickly with: DESCRIBE failed with 0: connect() failed:  
Operation timed out
