If you want to stream SRTP (using TLS for RTSP), then you need to use a “rtsps://“ URL, not a “rtsp://“ URL.

Also, the “-t” option (requesting RTP-over-TCP streaming) to “openRTSP” should be used only if you have a firewall - between your server and client - that blocks UDP packets.  Otherwise, use regular (S)RTP streaming; it’s more efficient.  (Also, you can’t stream over the TCP connection if you want SRTP.)  So, omit the “-t”.
