It seems that at <<a href="http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/public" target="_blank">http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/public</a>> only the latest source tarball is published. Is there an URL where older tarballs are available?<br>
<br>
They are needed especially for maintained distributions (in our case OpenEmbedded[1] related distributions like Ångström[2]), where it is not acceptable to switch to a latest version every few days.<br>

<div><br></div><div>...mainly, my interest is in having SVN history so I know _why_ the code is, and what's changed over time. Still need to stuff the most recent version in there, I'll get to that sometime today.</div>
<div><br></div><div>As for updating to the most recent version, this works okay--until there's some bug in the library you can't solve and nobody on the mailing list seems to know what's going on, and you have no source code history so it's much more difficult to understand how the code changed to precipitate that bug. Currently, this is the situation I face. Receiving RTP over TCP in current releases with multiple sub-sessions is, by and large, broken as best I can tell due to something with the new synchronous API--I have not been able to solve it, and the "workaround" I found has unacceptable results. History would help, which is why I started stuffing versions into the aforementioned project.</div>
