[Live-devel] SDP ntp range attribute for live streams

Currently RTSP server generates the following SDP line for live streams:

a=range:npt=0-

I'm afraid it's not very correct and

a=range:npt=now-

should be used instead. A quote from rfc2326:

> The "now" constant allows clients to request to receive the live feed rather than the stored or time-delayed version. This is needed since neither absolute time nor zero time are appropriate for this case.

I see no way to set this via inheritance without changing the library.
