VLC, like MPlayer, uses the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" code for RTSP client support, but is generally more reliable than MPlayer.' but don't provide any information on why they think this is so, or what versions of the two players they are referring to. I'm not sure if this is related to mplayer's decision to support libnemesi (http://lscube.org/projects/libnemesi ) as an alternative for these streams. I think vlc has an option to dump the stream to a file, too, right? b.
