What I can probably do is upgrade our server code so that it sends a RTCP "SR" 
packet immediately upon handling a "PLAY" command (before the first RTP packet 
is sent).  (I think this is actually prescribed in one of the IETF RFCs.)  That 
won't be 100% reliable (because this first RTCP packet may get lost, but most 
of the time it will eliminate the delay before RTCP synchronization occurs.

Yes, it would be nice if the "RTP-Info:" data included a NTP-format time (the 
same as in RTCP "SR"s), but unfortunately that's not in the standard.
