For this case I have already set up an EventTriggerId to call into the running event loop and a handler which triggers a deferred handling of openURL(). This works fine initially, but the newly connected streams always stall completely after a short time (few seconds or just few frames). The streams connected before startAll() continue to play just fine.<br><br>What could be going wrong here? Or is there any general issue that permits starting new sessions from a running event loop?<br></blockquote><div><br></div>No. It shouldn't matter whether you call "openURL()" from outside or inside the event loop (provided that - if you called it from outside the event loop - you enter the event loop next, as we do in the "testRTSPClient" code).</div><div><br></div><div>I suspect that there's some bug in your code - having nothing to do with the event loop. I'd test this by (in order):</div><div>1/ Starting just a single stream, starting outside the event loop (as in the current "testRTSPClient" code)</div><div>2/ Starting just a single stream, starting inside the event loop</div><div>3/ Starting two streams, both starting outside the event loop (as in the current "testRTSPClient" code)</div><div>4/ Starting two streams, both starting inside the event loop</div><div><br></div><div>This will likely help you track down your bug.</div><br><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
