The most seamless way is to use Phonon.
If you are using Windows, Phonon uses DirectShow as the backend. To utilize this you need a RTSP DirectShow source filter, which you register in Windows. There are commercially available ones and a few open source projects that may have what you need.
For example, http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtspdirectshow
A good rule of thumb is if you can play it in Windows Media Player (mplayer2.exe, wmplayer.exe), you can play it using Phonon. Currently you would not be able to play a URL containing "rtsp://" in WMP or Phonon is because no DirectShow source filters are installed which support RTSP.
