The caps will be incomplete and it won't work well. You need to
depayload and payload the stream again, e.g. by using

  udpsrc ... ! rtph264depay ! rtph264pay name=pay0

Also gst-rtsp-server needs a payloader is the very last element in any
case, or something that implements the same API at least.
