[Live-devel] RTCP Bye in PassiveServerMediaSession

No, that's not what the code does.  When the code reaches the end of 
the input file, it reads/streams it again starting from the 
beginning.  During this whole time, the output (network) stream 
remains intact, so no RTCP "BYE" ever gets sent.

I.e., the code runs in a loop, reading/streaming the same file(s) 
over and over again.

In the current code, the (RTP)Sinks never get closed! (See above.)

However, if you wanted to cause a RTCP "BYE" packet to get sent, then 
the way to do this would be to call "Medium::close()" on the 
"RTCPInstance" object.
