[Live-devel] Making RTSP commands work when streaming RTP over TCP

No, that's not correct.  There is no problem having multiple streams 
(e.g., audio + video) in a single RTP-over-TCP connection.  (The data 
format includes a tag which identifies each sub-stream, and our 
receiving software handles this OK.)

Basically, yes.
