Ok Thanks, It's not the answer I wanted but It's what I expected.<br>
<br>
I guess even if I could configure the server in this way the client
support might not be great anyway.<br>

You can’t. The server (specifically, the
“ServerMediaSubsession” object, identified by ‘stream name’)
specifies the characteristics of the stream (including whether
it’s unicast or multicast).</div>

Yes, this is the way to do it (i.e., using different stream
names, with a “PassiveServerMediaSubsession” for multicast, and
a “OnDemandServerMediaSubsession” (subclass) for unicast). Note
that you can use a “StreamReplicator” to make two copies of your
live source; delivering one copy to
the “PassiveServerMediaSubsession”, and the other copy to
your “OnDemandServerMediaSubsession” (subclass, with
“reuseFirstSource” True).</div>

<div class=""> I did notice that the live555mediaserver
doesn't support it which suggests that the library doesn't
support this either? but openRTSP does support explicitly
requesting a multicast stream.<br class="">
