This is surprising, because the “LIVE555 Proxy Server” should be treating a-law audio exactly the same way that it treats u-law audio.

I suspect that there may be a problem in the way that your camera handles streaming of a-law audio.

Have you tried connecting to the camera directly from VLC, or using “openRTSP” - i.e.
	Camera<========TCP==========>VLC
or
	Camera<========TCP==========>openRTSP (with the “-t” option)
?

Do you have an a-law audio WAV file (generated from your camera) that I could use for testing?
