[Live-devel] RTSP over HTTPS tunneling

Sorry, I missed this; I thought that you were referring primarily to HTTP.  My apologies.

I might end up adding this functionality sometime in the future.  But I’m curious: Does our existing RTSP server implementation support RTSP-over-HTTPS?  When I recently added RTSP-over-TLS support to our RTSP server implementation, it wasn’t intended to also support RTSP-over-HTTPS.  But perhaps this is working by (happy) accident?  Or are you using some other RTSP server implementation to test your modified client?

Also, I don’t understand your first proposed patch (changing “fInputSocketNum” to “fOutputSocketNum” in a call to “getsockopt()”).  The connection handler function is clearly for handling *incoming* data, so it should always be on the input socket, not the output socket (on which we never receive data).
