Oh please.  Rather than wasting time on 3rd party web sites like ‘Stack Overflow’ (which no top-tier person bothers posting to), you should check directly with the source of the software - i.e., with the FAQ  on our web site.

Note that the “testH264VideoStreamer” demo application streams via IP multicast - which means that it probably won’t go beyond the local LAN.  Instead, you should consider streaming via unicast, using our “testOnDemandRTSPServer” demo application.

Specifically, note this FAQ entry:
