Nope.  live555MediaServer totally ignores parameters passed on the 
command line currently.  One could change it, if one were a programmer.

There's no better way to learn how to program than having a project that 
forces you to learn in order to complete it.  Live555 is a very deep 
pool to dive into, but adding a command line parser to 
live555MediaServer would be a fine first project.  man 3 getopt.

VLC relies on Live555 to do RTSP, so if VLC can't do a thing, Live555 
probably can't do it either, out of the box at least.
