RTSP is not proprietary to RealServer, RTSP (Real Time Streaming
Protocol) is an open standard employed by most major streaming methods
like QuickTime Streaming for example.
ffserver should be able to use RTSP, you could view the source to the
OpenSource QuickTime Streaming server at http://publicsource.apple.com/
and see how they implemented it.

the normal streaming protocol (whatzit called? rtsp:// I think) that is
proprietary to RealServer. I think (guessing) that if you use http:
RealPlayer is thinking the file must NOT be a stream. I have gotten it
up to almost 9 minutes at low resolution/low framerate.
