I tried setting both ends specifically and got nothing, but when setting
just the server to a specific address and the client without one, this
at least made the server start sending packets which I'm guessing
contained the video stream, although the client still didn't do anything
helpful.

I additionally tried to get VLC to consume the stream from GStreamer,
but even VLC just sat there flashing the seek bar and not getting the
stream. I didn't see GStreamer create any packets either.

Cheers, I'll give that idea a go.
