  You mentioned in a previous message that mplayer and vlc work on one
computer, but not on the other.  So we know they both work.  I think the
problem is somewhere in the remote access.  How are you accessing the
rtsp stream?  Is it like so (example name and numbers)...

mplayer rtsp://10.1.2.3/stream_name

  Things to check...

* if you're using a domain name rather than an IP address, is it defined
  in the remote machine's /etc/hosts ?

* is the remote machine's firewall blocking the camera's IP address ?

* is the camera set to only stream to a specific IP address (range) ?
