Hi Ross,<br>
<br>
Yes I understand that it is an issue with VLC and not with Live555.<br>
<br>
I'm not asking for any changes to the Live555 library.<br>
<br>
I am asking whether it is possible to configure my Live555 RTSP
server to ignore the case of stream names in URL's as a workaround
for the VLC problem because we don't have a requirement for stream
name case sensitivity.<br>
<br>

No, this seems to be a problem specific to VLC (which is not our
software). As far as I can tell (from the link that you
included), the problem is that VLC is storing old URLs
somewhere, and then doing a case-insensitive match when checking
whether a newly-entered URL has been used before (and then - if
there’s a match - reusing the previous URL rather than the new
URL). This appears to be happening outside the LIVE555 software
(which VLC uses when its acting as a LIVE555 client).</div>

<div>If, however, you can identify a specific problem with the
LIVE555 code (identifiable by using LIVE555 RTSP client code -
e.g., “openRTSP” or “testRTSPClient” - only), then let us know.</div>

<div>If, on the other hand, you’re asking that LIVE555 RTSP
*servers* ignore the case of stream names in URLs, then the
answer is again No - because some server developers might want
to allow their server to support more than one stream, whose
names differ in case. (Also, stream names might be
‘internationalized’ - i.e., encoded as UTF-8 - and
case-insensitive comparison might not work (or work incorrectly)
if performed on UTF-8 stream names.)</div>
