+.IP CURLOPT_RTPFUNCTION
+Function pointer that should match the following prototype: \fIsize_t
+function( void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *stream)\fP. This
+function gets called by libcurl as soon as it has received interleaved RTP
+data. This function gets called for each $ block and therefore contains
+exactly one upper-layer protocol unit (e.g. one RTP packet). Curl writes the
+interleaved header as well as the included data for each call. The first byte
+is always an ASCII dollar sign. The dollar sign is followed by a one byte
+channel identifier and then a 2 byte integer length in network byte order. See
+\fIRFC 2326 Section 10.12\fP for more information on how RTP interleaving
+behaves.
+
+Interleaved RTP poses some challeneges for the client application. Since the
+stream data is sharing the RTSP control connection, it is critical to service
+the RTP in a timely fashion. If the RTP data is not handled quickly,
+subsequent response processing may become unreasonably delayed and the
+connection may close. The application may use \fICURL_RTSPREQ_RECEIVE\fP to
+service RTP data when no requests are desired. If the application makes a
+request, (e.g. \fICURL_RTSPREQ_PAUSE\fP) then the response handler will
+process any pending RTP data before marking the request as finished. (Added
+in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURLOPT_RTPDATA
+This is the stream that will be passed to \fICURLOPT_RTPFUNCTION\fP when
+interleaved RTP data is received. Since the application is required to provide
+a custom function for RTP data, there is no requirement that the stream
+pointer be a valid FILE pointer. An application may wish to pass a cookie
+containing information about many streams to assist in demultiplexing the
+different RTP channels. (Added in 7.20.0)

+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_DESCRIBE
+Used to get the low level description of a stream. The application should note

+application/sdp'\fP. Time-condition headers will be added to Describe requests

+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_ANNOUNCE
+When sent by a client, this method changes the description of the session. For
+example, if a client is using the server to record a meeting, the client can
+use Announce to inform the server of all the meta-information about the
+session. ANNOUNCE acts like an HTTP PUT or POST just like
+\fICURL_RTSPREQ_SET_PARAMETER\fP (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_SETUP
+Setup is used to initialize the transport layer for the session. The
+application must set the desired Transport options for a session by using the
+\fICURLOPT_RTSP_TRANSPORT\fP option prior to calling setup. If no session ID
+is currently set with \fICURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID\fP, libcurl will extract and
+use the session ID in the response to this request. \fB(The session ID is not
+needed for this method).\fP (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_PLAY
+Send a Play command to the server. Use the \fICURLOPT_RANGE\fP option to
+modify the playback time (e.g. 'npt=10-15'). (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_PAUSE
+Send a Pause command to the server. Use the \fICURLOPT_RANGE\fP option with a
+single value to indicate when the stream should be halted. (e.g. npt='25')
+(Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_TEARDOWN
+This command terminates an RTSP session. Note that simply closing a connection
+does not terminate the RTSP session since it is valid to control an RTSP
+session over different connections. (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_GET_PARAMETER
+Retrieve a parameter from the server. By default, libcurl will automatically
+include an \fIAccept: text/parameters\fP header unless a custom one is set.
+Applications wishing to send a heartbeat message (e.g. in the presence of a
+server-specified timeout) should send use an empty GET_PARAMETER request.
+(Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_SET_PARAMETER
+Set a parameter on the server. By default, libcurl will automatically include
+a \fIContent-Type: text/parameters\fP header unless a custom one is set. The
+interaction with SET_PARAMTER is much like an HTTP PUT or POST. An application
+may either use \fICURLOPT_UPLOAD\fP with \fICURLOPT_READDATA\fP like an HTTP
+PUT, or it may use \fICURLOPT_POSTFIELDS\fP like an HTTP POST. Note that no
+chunked transfers are allowed, so the application must set the
+\fICURLOPT_INFILESIZE\fP in the former and \fICURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE\fP in the
+latter. Also, there is no use of multi-part POSTs within RTSP. (Added in
+7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_RECORD
+Used to tell the server to record a session. Use the \fICURLOPT_RANGE\fP
+option to modify the record time. (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_RECEIVE
+This is a special request because it does not send any data to the server. The
+application may call this function in order to receive interleaved RTP
+data. It will return after processing one read buffer of data in order to give
+the application a chance to run. (Added in 7.20.0)

+.IP CURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID
+Pass a char * as a parameter to set the value of the current RTSP Session ID
+for the handle. Useful for resuming an in-progress session. Once this value is
+set to any non-NULL value, libcurl will return \fICURLE_RTSP_SESSION_ERROR\fP
+if ID received from the server does not match. If unset (or set to NULL),
+libcurl will automatically set the ID the first time the server sets it in a
+response. (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI
+Set the stream URI to operate on by passing a char * . For example, a single
+session may be controlling \fIrtsp://foo/twister/audio\fP and
+\fIrtsp://foo/twister/video\fP and the application can switch to the
+appropriate stream using this option. If unset, libcurl will default to
+operating on generic server options by passing '*' in the place of the RTSP
+Stream URI. Note that this option is distinct from \fICURLOPT_URL\fP. When
+working with RTSP, the \fICURLOPT_STREAM_URI\fP indicates what URL to send to
+the server in the request header while the \fICURLOPT_URL\fP indicates where
+to make the connection to. (e.g. the \fICURLOPT_URL\fP for the above examples
+might be set to \fIrtsp://foo/twister\fP (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURLOPT_RTSP_TRANSPORT
+Pass a char * to tell libcurl what to pass for the Transport: header for this
+RTSP session. This is mainly a convenience method to avoid needing to set a
+custom Transport: header for every SETUP request. The application must set a
+Transport: header before issuing a SETUP request. (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURLOPT_RTSP_HEADER
+This option is simply an alias for \fICURLOPT_HTTP_HEADER\fP. Use this to
+replace the standard headers that RTSP and HTTP share. It is also valid to use
+the shortcuts such as \fICURLOPT_USERAGENT\fP. (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURLOPT_RTSP_CLIENT_CSEQ
+Manually set the the CSEQ number to issue for the next RTSP request. Useful if
+the application is resuming a previously broken connection. The CSEQ will
+increment from this new number henceforth. (Added in 7.20.0)
+.IP CURLOPT_RTSP_SERVER_CSEQ
+Manually set the CSEQ number to expect for the next RTSP Server->Client
