[Live-devel] Easiest way to implement custom RTSP messages?

Thank you for the promptly reply, however you didn't quite answer my 
question which was "What is the best way to implement custom RTSP 
messages?", not "What would you recommend me to get a list of files from 
server?".

Surely, the implemented custom RTSP messages will be supported by my 
client/server combo so I don't see why a webserver (another workaround) 
would be neccessary :) Thanks for the suggestion though, it's something 
to fall-back to in case this fails.

P.S. Compatibility with other clients and/or strictly sticking to the 
protocol is not my concern at the moment.

Thanks in advance.
