[MPlayer-users] Trying to use -rtsp-stream-over-tcp

Hi All,

I'm doing some tests to be able to stream RTSP through my firewall.

Right now, my firewall is Off.

The typical command works "mplayer
rtsp://192.168.1.200/nphMpeg4/nil-640x480 -user
user -passwd password -cache 8192 -fps 30"

But, if I try to add the option "-rtsp -stream-over-tcp" to the above, the
stream does not play and I get  this:

=================================================

This stream is non-cacheable

Stream not seekable!

Initiated "video/MP4V-ES" RTP subsession on port 33238

Exiting... (End of file)
========================================

I don't quite understand, since the firewall is Off, why would streaming
over tcp option not work?
All ports opened... What could be causing this?

Any suggestions?

Cheers,
Steve
