Neither do I.  To play the stream (using VLC, or just about any other 
media player), you will need a SDP description.  This is especially 
true for H.264, because to initialize the client's decoder, you will 
need special parameters ("sprop-parameter-set") that are often 
provided only in the SDP description.

Why don't you consult the documentation for your camera?  If it 
really does stream H.264 video via RTP, then it should describe how 
to access/view the stream on 3rd-party clients (unless it is really 
using some proprietary, Sony-specific protocol, in which case we 
won't be able to help you).
