I mean the else below, especially

        /* XXX: parse message */
        if (rt->state != RTSP_STATE_STREAMING)
            return 0;

I did some tests with the rtsp server from:
https://github.com/revmischa/rtsp-server

This point can be reached with rt->state = RTSP_STATE_IDLE when the
initial_pause option is set:
./ffmpeg -initial_pause 1 -i rtsp://127.0.0.1/abc -f null -

Then it seems changing the return value in the above code would lead to
unintended results.

Thanks for testing this.

Indeed, I'd rather treat that as a separate case. The listen mode is not very widely used, and this issue can be traced back to a regression, so that can be easily fixed in that context.

For the other case you're pointing out, I don't have a concrete bug (the UDP mode seems to require waiting for a long timeout at the end though, but changing this return statement to return an error doesn't seem to help), and the normal non-listen mode code can be used in a huge variety of cases, many that aren't very easy to test (e.g. the code used to support RealRTSP, but I'm not sure if there's any publicly available test clips/servers for that any longer - multimediawiki used to list some, but I tested them last time close to a decade ago, and then there might have been zero or one of them still responding). So for that code, I'd tread much more carefully...
