ffplay can open an rtp destination and play a stream from there, but
it doesn't support streaming to somewhere else. Basic support for
this is there (and check out ffserver), but I don't think it's been
worked on for quite a while.

if ffplay is built with CONFIG_NETWORK enabled, just something like:
./ffplay rtsp://host/path_to_sdp_file might work.
Your mileage may vary, depending on codecs.
Good luck.
