No, the "LIVE555 Media Server" application first tries to use port 
554 (the default port number for RTSP), and then (if port 554 can't 
be used) it tries to use port 8554 (the alternative port number for 
RTSP).  These port numbers can't be changed (unless you were to 
modify the source code).

As for the IP address: The application will use whichever network 
interface is used for multicast routing.
