I needed this fix to make [Shinobi](https://github.com/ShinobiCCTV/Shinobi) works with recent chinese cameras.
We can read that FFmpeg is perfectly following the [RTSP specs](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2326#page-58) : `Transports are comma separated, listed in order of preference. Parameters may be added to each transport, separated by a semicolon.` But considering: - VLC is working smart with not perfect cameras ; - RTSP module in FFmpeg is not programmed to handle more than one transport ; => this fix could be useful to anyone I also think this fix might be improved by a better scan of parameters if ffmpeg wants to handle more than one transport. Details: I'm using [Shinobi](https://github.com/ShinobiCCTV/Shinobi) to record cameras rtsp streams For several cameras, cheap chinese ones, VLC is working to get stream but FFmpeg always crashes after it receives the RTSP transports parameters available. `Transport: RTP/AVP;unicast;mode=PLAY;source=192.168.66.164;client_port=11658-11659;server_port=40000-40001,ssrc=FFFFCCCC` After debugging the source code, it appears that FFmpeg is not considering that a comma `,` before `ssrc` is a correct separator and think it's a second transport. Then it crashes because RTSP don't want to accept more than one transport.
