Yes, exactly.  Remember, when you instantiate 
"OnDemandServerMediaSubsession", to set the "reuseFirstSource" 
parameter to True, because you're reading from a live source rather 
than a file.

You must write your own implementation of "createNewStreamSource()" 
and "createNewRTPSink()".  As you noted, you can use the existing 
implementation of these functions in 
"WAVAudioFileServerMediaSubsession" as a model.
