Yes, if you don't ask specifically to output audio (-a) or video (-v) to 
stdout, it will create and write to a file (one file for audio; one for video).

Try re-running "openRTSP" with the "-V" (verbose) flag.  Also try "-n" 
(which will beep when data starts arriving).  If you're behind a firewall, 
you may also need to add the "-t" option (stream over the RTSP connection).
