If I would like to go ahead and use a NAT with UDP streaming mode, how would I facilitate
this? I have a similar behaviour where after 45 seconds, I get a liveness
timeout due to the inability of RTCP packets (i.e receiver reports) to get to
the streaming server from the client. Can I statically forward the RTCP ports
ahead of time in the router? My hunch tells me the RTCP ports are dynamically
set by the stack and so cannot be forwarded easily – the streaming over
TCP option works well in VLC, and no timeouts do occur (but that involves using
only VLC). Quicktime unfortunately does not support transmission over TCP (they
do RTSP over HTTP), and it’s absolutely imperative for our client that
the stream be present in Quicktime.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
