[streaming] VOD with real time transcoding

[JD O'Connor]

I'm interested in using a VLC/VLM to create a VOD instance that will
create RTP streams (controlled through RTSP) that are transcoded in
real time from another RTSP or HTTP source (in the case of HTTP, the
video will have to be interleaved).  I can currently (with 0.86e) do
the http version of this scenario, but the transcode and stream are
done in serial, and clients will time out during the RTSP session.

VLC
will accept an RTSP stream, transcode and expose the content over RTP
streams without an RTSP session.  The only part that is left is to
allow control over an RTSP session.  If need be, trick play can be
sacrificed and only the "play and stop" functionality implemented.

I know that there are a lot of RTSP changes going into 0.90, and I'm wondering if this is one of the considerations.

Thank you,
Jay
