Our proxy server already ‘modifies URLs’.  Or more precisely, it acts as a RTSP 
server of its own, and therefore provides its own RTSP URLs to ‘front-end’ 
clients.  These differ from the URLs that the proxy server uses to access the 
‘back-end’ streams.

I suggest that you begin by familiarizing yourself with the existing “LIVE555 
Proxy Server” application, described in
        http://www.live555.com/proxyServer/ 
<http://www.live555.com/proxyServer/>

This appears to already do most of what you want.  Note, in particular, that 
the proxy server’s ‘back end’ streams (i.e., the streams that it receives) can 
be either unicast or multicast.  (Note, however, that the proxy server’s 
‘front-end’ streams are unicast only, which is not quite what you want; you 
noted that you want the front-end streams to be either unicast or multicast.  
It would be possible to modify the code to support this, and I could assist you 
with this - but some of this assistance would likely be beyond what I can 
provide ‘for free’ on this mailing list.)

In any case, I suggest that you first familiarize yourself with the existing 
“LIVE555 Proxy Server”.
