I don't blame you for thinking curl would support it, but it actually doesn't!
(and I find no docs claiming that it does)

I would expect RTSPS to be supported by the URI using exactly that scheme:
"rtsps://example.com/" as rtsp has so many similarities with https. The
CURLOPT_USE_SSL model is more suitable for ping-pong protocols such as FTP,
SMTP and the likes.

Adding support for RTSPS shouldn't be a big deal to do though. All the
necessary pieces are already present. We mostly need to add a new Curl_handler
struct in lib/rtsp.c (taking inspiration from http.c on how it has one http
handler and one https handler), add it to the protocol[] array in lib/url.c
and then document it! =)
