I have the same problem with my Freebox (the DSL modem of a french 
ISP),
which forwards TV channels as MPEG streams with RTSP/RTP. cf one or 2 
weeks ago, except it stops at 30 seconds.
I suppose it's the same problem, being ffmpeg doesn't send the Receiver 
Report, so the server (the camera or the modem) assumes the client is 
dead, and stops sending data to it to sopt wasting bandwidth.

I've started implementing that, but the RTP code in ffmpeg is split in 
2 independant parts and to send the RR it needs the stats from rtp.c 
and the socket from rtpproto.c...

The RFC is not the easiest on stomac...
