[Live-devel] testOnDemandRTSPServer multicast question

[Tim J Shackleton]

Hi Ross,

I have been experimenting with a multicast to unicast RTSP relay, as 
demonstrated in testOnDemandRTSPServer.

A behaviour I have noticed, is that the first client connects and 
receives the stream correctly, and all subsequent connections do too - 
they can SETUP, PLAY and TEARDOWN to their hearts content...

However, if /*all*/ clients leave, the multicast source seems to become 
closed (though not reported as such in debug), and any clients that try 
to connect from this point onwards are accepted, but do not receive a 
video stream.

Is this an expected behaviour?  And if it is, can this behaviour be 
altered so that the source remains connected in absence of RTSP clients?

Thanks and regards,

-Tim
