> I have been trying to work out how I can get Live555 to provide me with the RTP packet header data as well as the payload but have had no luck. I did look at using a SimpleRTPSource but that seems to strip off the RTP header as well.

Our code doesn’t just ‘strip off’ the RTP header - it *processes* the RTP header.  I.e., the whole purpose of the “LIVE555 Streaming Media” code’s RTP handling is that you - the developer - don’t have to concern yourself with RTP headers (including sequence numbers, RTP timestamps, fragmentation over multiple RTP packets or possibly multiple frames per RTP packets, etc.).  Why do you think you want to see the RTP header?

If you *really* want to - for whatever reason - see the RTP header, you could use a “BasicUDPSource” rather than a “RTPSource” subclass.  You’d be on your own from that point, though.
