Sorry, but you can't do this from the QTSS/Darwin Streaming Server.
The selection between HTTP and UDP streaming transports can only be set
from the client-side. It is best though if you configure your streaming server
(and any firewall between the server and clients) to permit both UDP (ports 6970-6999)
and HTTP (TCP port 80) since you never know what streaming transport a client
may be pre-configured to use when connecting to your server.

>where "foo.mov" is a QuickTime movie file that contains an embedded "rtsp://"; URL that points to a DSS. This works OK. However, I'd like to be able to *force* the QuickTime player (embedded within the client's browser web page) to stream using RTSP/RTP-over-HTTP. How can I do this?

>I've found that one way to do this is have the client first start up the QuickTime Player application, and then use its "Edit"/"Preferences"/"QuickTime Preferences"/"Streaming Transport" menu to select the "Use HTTP" option. Then, after closing QuickTime Player, the next time the client accesses the web page, he'll automatically get RTSP/RTP-over-HTTP.

>But how can I do this without requiring the client to explicitly configure the QuickTime Player application first?
