Are you commenting on the deadlock patch or the other one ?
what is the item for you ?

If vlc exit then rstp.c:close() is called, so rtsp.c:thread is joined (so if one
asynchronous command is being processed we wait for it), and then, remaining
asynchronous commands are processed in the close().

Did I answer your question ?
