[Live-devel] openRTSP + Apache + mediaServer

[Ángel Durán Alcaide]

Thank Ross for your rapid answer

Basically, I want to have in the same computer a web server (in my 
example apache) and the live555 media server as RTSP server,therefore I 
need apache working as an HTTP proxy for RTSP requests (?)... but in my 
tests it did not work. (I don't know if I need to setup anything more in 
any of the system parts)

My last statement was about if another possibility to do that exists, 
that is,for example: live555 has its own HTTP server that is able to 
receive HTTP requests for serving webs as well as RTSP requests and then 
avoid using apache.
