[gst-devel] question about c->s rtcp in http tunnel

[Peter Kjellerstedt]

I believe you are misinterpreting the message quoted below. Everything is sent interleaved when tunneling over RTSP (with or without HTTP) both to and from the server. The POST channel used with HTTP tunneling is then base64 encoded. This has nothing to do with the interleaving, but works around problems with proxies interpreting the POST data. So GStreamer is doing the right thing regarding RTCP.

Subject: [gst-devel] question about c->s rtcp in http tunnel

Hi All,
I have a question about rtcp (e.g. RR) sent from client to server in http tunnel:

Gstreaming rtsp connection sends rtcp RR in base64 format, same way as rtsp request through http post channel from client to server.
But I saw openRTSP is sending it in interleaved mode in post channel.
(http://www.mail-archive.com/live-devel@lists.live555.com/msg03278.html)

I searched apple documents,  unfortunately they didn't mention anything about c->s rtcp.
I don't know what darwin streaming server expects from client.

Any ideas which is correct base64 or interleaved (or c->s RTCP is not needed at all in reliable http connection)?  Thanks.
