They would be called rtpdirac[de]pay, since the format is Dirac.

However, nobody has ever written an RTP spec for Dirac, so until
that happens, there will not be Dirac RTP elements.

You can encapsulate Dirac in MPEG-TS and send MPEG-TS over RTP.
It's a little convoluted, but that's how it's done in broadcasting
for H.264.
