Hi Ross

I realize this is an old thread, but we are using the very latest version of
live555 (as at today, 30 May 2013) and the exact same error occurs on our
application. We are using the "old RTSP client interface" though, that is
defined with RTSPCLIENT_SYNCHRONOUS_INTERFACE. Is that the reason? Was this
only fixed in the newer interface or should it be working when we use
functions from RTSPCLIENT_SYNCHRONOUS_INTERFACE as well?
