[Live-devel] openRTSP Test Program Fails to Export a File

Hi,

I'm using the live555 library in order to save an RTSP stream from a PTZ camera.  I used the openRTSP program in the "testProgs" directory in order to test whether it would work with the camera I was using.  From the output, the program was able to connect to and talk to the camera and request frames from it.  However, upon examining the output files from the program, the data was corrupt.  My next test was to try outputting a quicktime file.  When I tried this, the program started printing Klingon to the screen and producing an annoying beeping.  The program crashed and did this with the various other output options (avi, mp4).  

>From the behavior I described, does someone have any idea of what I'm doing wrong?  Do I not have a needed library or did I compile something wrong?  I did test it using VLC and it was able to view and record the RTSP stream from the camera successfully.
