[Live-devel] RTCP packets sent on wrong-end of HTTP tunnel

Hi,

this is just to let you know there's a small problem with RTCP reports  
when tunneling over HTTP. I noticed on my custom RTSP proxy that RTCP  
packets are sent on the GET side of the HTTP tunnel, i.e., the reply  
side. My HTTP handler breaks the connection because of the extra data  
that is received after the GET request.

I could only work around this for now by removing the call to  
RTCPInstance::createNew that's in MediaSubsession::initiate. Perhaps  
the RTCP packets should be sent on the POST side of the tunnel,  
though, or RTCPInstance::createNew should be disabled if the  
connection is tunneled.


Kind regards,

Steven Kramer
