[Live-devel] relaying RTSP?

Hi,

I am trying to implement a relay for RTSP or something similar for the
following situation:

+--------------+     +---------------------------+     +-----------+
|      pc      |     |         box with 2 NICs   |     |   camera  |
|192.168.0.1/24|<--->|192.168.0.2/24  10.0.0.1/24|<--->|10.0.0.2/24|
+--------------+     +---------------------------+     +-----------+

On the pc I have a *crappy* software that to read some data from the box
with 2 NICs and receive the RTSP video from the camera. The easiest
solution would be opening two connection to two different IPs on the
192.168.0.0/24 lan, but the software can deal with just one IP. Thus,
since I only need to receive the video from the camera, I considered the
solution I just showed you, by hiding the camera in the lan 10.0.0.0/24
and relaying it.

Now the question is: how can I do this with live555? Is there something
already available?

Or, but this is not related to live555, do you know if it possibile to
do it just with NAT? And what if the camera uses multicasting to stream?

Any hint is appreciated.

Thank you,

Ottavio
