The cur_pts in the stream starts out with an absolute timestamp, while for all 
subsequent packets it only carries a relative timestamp. The check for whether 
it's time to transmit or not thus compares the huge cur_pts against the 
current server time (which is also relative) and decides it's not time to send 
anything yet.

This patch gets things working for a single stream (audio only or video only). 
Still not working for both audio and video; in that case I only receive the audio.

How is it that things got to be this way? This rtsp stuff surely hasn't worked 
at all, in ages...
