Yes, thanks for the reminder that our RTSP server implementation - due to a bug
that needs fixing - currently does not send a RTCP “BYE” when a stream ends.
That will be fixed sometime (perhaps fairly soon). But that’s not particularly
relevant here, because you are asking about how to program a RTSP *client*.

Sorry, but you can’t. Once again, it’s perfectly legal for a server to close
the RTSP TCP connection at any time, even before the stream has ended. So even
if you could detect when the RTSP TCP connection has closed - which you can’t -
it wouldn’t tell you anything useful.

No, what you want is to detect when packets have stopped arriving (at the
client), after a certain threshold. For an illustration of how to do this,
note how “openRTSP” implements the
-D <maximum-inter-packet-gap>
option: http://www.live555.com/openRTSP/#playing-time
(Search for “interPacketGapMaxTime” in “testProgs/playCommon.cpp”.)
