That's a pity, but I think it's easy to fix: 

When user selects UDP in Stream output dialog, it fills the MRL with:

:sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=ts,url=:1234}} 

i.e. it outputs RAW/UDP. But when the MRL is changed to access=rtp,
it outputs RTP/UDP.

So in fact we'd only need a selector in the GUI's UDP line, which will allow
the user to select RTP/UDP or RAW/UDP (or an on/off "RTP" button)
with the default setting to use RTP, and a small change in SAP announcer
to fill SAPs with "m=video .... RTP/AVP 33" in case of RTP/UDP.

That will bring the majority of users to the RTP world :-)

	With kind regards,
