In fairness, you are right their servers do have some quirks. But I work
with many different vod servers on a daily basis not one of them is a
like. They all have pretty much different implementations from setup
routines to trickplay methods.

Also I notice there seems to be a bit of negativity to implementing
RTSP/UDP server over RTP. Why is this? If your looking at being able to
use this functionality with STB's then it really is a must.

Well because those servers are pieces of shit. And i say that as an 
enduser of the thing for over 3,5 years, and as someone who has been 
studying the internals and software of this machine for almost half a 
year now. The implementations of their protocols are clearly very much 
outdated requiring anyone who wants to use something else then the 
Kasenna MediaBase Player jump trough hoops and climb mountains to use 
the servers.

And I'm positive Dermot thinks quite alike, because he has been 
struggling with them for over half a year aswell :)

P.S. Could you please configure your mailclient to use quoting? It's 
making it hard to follow which person wrote what in your emails...
