[Live-devel] Paths in RTSP requests

Then why bother?  I'm sure you could (somehow) hack the RTSP server 
code to do what you want to do, but why not just use a character 
other than "/" in the RTSP URLs - e.g.,
	rtsp://host/video:MPEG4:stream[number]
?  This would require no change to the existing code.
