Good afternoon!

I was running into an odd issue where I could not successfully connect to an RTSP stream on sdk 1.0.0. It seems like it kept adding clients repeatedly and disconnecting them when I tried connecting. I tried this on both VLC and QGC and the output was the same:

```

```

I switched back to 0.9.5 and was able to successfully connect without running into this issue. Makes me suspect that some change in voxl-streamer might be causing this. Also, I did not copy the last line of this, but I remember client 1 also disconnected from RTSP server as well as the rest.

I don't know if it is expected to have multiple clients connect when trying to connect once.

Next week, I'm going to try flashing platform 1.0.0 again to see if I run into the same problem on a different VOXL2.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Best regards,

@John-Nomikos Can you enable debug output messages on voxl-streamer (Use `-v 0`) and post the output? Thanks!
