<div>No, but it will make your life easier (and will be manditory if
you later decide that you want unicast streaming, rather than
multicast).</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If you don't use RTSP, then you can still get VLC to play the
stream from "testMPEG1or2VideoStreamer", by asking it to
open a SDP description for the stream. This SDP description is
in the file "testMPEG1or2Video.sdp" (which is provided, in
the "testProgs" directory, along with the
"testMPEG1or2Video.cpp" code).</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If you instead use RTSP, then the RTSP server - built into the
"testMPEG1or2Video" application if you uncomment the
line</div>
<div><x-tab> </x-tab>#define
IMPLEMENT_RTSP_SERVER 1</div>
<div>will automatically provide a SDP description to VLC (and other
RTSP clients).</div>
