This works fine here with current git head without 
using live555 at all - which version are you using?

I implemented this once for MPlayer - iirc you have to 
feed the data you receive to the H264 parser, see 
libmpdemux/demux_rtp.cpp in the MPlayer sources.

But as said, this is outdated, FFmpeg now contains all 
the necessary code to receive above stream.
