Is this a publically documented and (legally) freely implemented
authentication protocol? If the answer to both these questions is yes,
then it could be implemented, in theory. If either is no, then it
absolutely cannot and will not be. It's certainly not currently
implemented.

It supports video streaming of theora.

It does not implement RTSP. You should have read the documentation,
which answers all of your questions.
