You already answer that partially yourself. Should it be tcpserversrc
or tcpclientsrc that is used with an tcp:// URI?

The other parts are answered by Nicolas' mail already, in general "TCP"
is not a well defined media streaming protocol. For some subset of
streams this can be made to work though.
