Adding qawanted to check if this is a regression in 2.1, given we had the RTSP support in 2.0 as well.

I was unable to get the provided streams to work on 2.2 Flame Master. I was also unable to get the provided links to work on VLC player on Ubuntu.

VLC player and Android phone both can play the links specified in comment 0.
But Flame 2.2 cannot. I'll look into this issue.

These RTSP links are live stream, a feature which Firefox OS doesn't support yet.

The range field in RTSP/SDP from the server reveals it's a live stream.
  Session Attribute (a): range:npt=now-
  Media Description, name and address (m): video 0 RTP/AVP 96
  Media Attribute (a): rtpmap:96 H264/90000
  ...

We have a plan to implement this feature in bug 1054171 ([RTSP] Support live stream over RTSP/RTP).
But we don't have a specific milestone (schedule) yet.
Howie, can you help to coordinate the requirement and schedule?
