That's not how GMainLoop or event loops in general work. A single thread
can run a single main loop, but you can attach multiple RTSP servers or
other things to that single main loop. And a main loop can only serve a
single main context.

See the documentation:
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-The-Main-Event-Loop.html

For your example, if it should run in a single thread:
1. Create main context
2. Create all RTSP servers and attach them to that main context
3. Create main loop, attach to that main context
4. g_main_loop_run()

g_main_loop_run() will not return until the main loop is quit with
g_main_loop_quit().
