Have you tried VLC?  (VLC uses the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" code for 
its RTSP/RTP client implementation.)

No, not really.  LIVE555 applications run within the event loop, so 
your "intermediate actions" (assuming that they use/interact with the 
LIVE555 code) need to be called from event handlers.

If you want your "intermediate actions" to be done each time data 
arrives on an object, then you can simnply call them from within your 
data handler.

Alternatively, if you want your "intermediate actions" to be done 
periodically, then you do this by setting up a task to be called 
periodically - using "TaskScheduler::scheduleDelayedTask() - and then 
call your "intermediate actions" from within this task.
