RTSP server question

[Chuck Crisler]

Here is a bit of background that may help.

I wrote the RTSP server code about 2 yrs. ago. The product deals with a
multitude of video sources and (again, due to poor architectural choices in
the past) I don't have the sprop_parameter_set for any source. Since the
SPS and PPS are usually supplied in-band, I supply a dummy
sprop_paramter_set for the server launch line. This has always worked until
recently with a specific new Android phone. Now, when the daemon is
started, I start a 'snooping' pipeline with udpsrc->rtph264depay->fakesink.
I modified the rtph264depay element to capture the SPS and PPS, generate a
sprop_parameter_set and emit signal. The app then retrieves the data and
dynamically generates the launch line, after destroying the snoop pipeline.
This works for Windows clients using VLC (though not well, and I don't
understand that) but fails for Android clients with the symptoms mentioned
above.
