Yann,

Many thanks for the report.  Yes, the RTSP server code was not properly handling the case when more than one "SETUP" command - from the same client - was performed on the same track.  (The particular crash that you noted happened only when streaming a MPEG Program Stream file, but the bug was potentially applicable to any kind of stream.)

I have now installed a new version (2014.07.18) of the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" software to fix this bug, and have also installed new versions of the pre-built "LIVE555 Media Server" application binaries.
