RTSP Server with UDP or TCP Streaming

[Bruce Liang]

Hi,

The transport layer protocol is chosen by rtsp client.

You can check this article to make vlc(rtsp client) send SETUP request that chooses tcp as transport layer.
https://www.wowza.com/docs/how-to-configure-vlc-media-player-for-rtsp-rtp-playback-rtsp-rtp-interleaved-and-tuning?64-How-to-configure-VLC-media-player-for-RTSP-RTP-playback-%28RTSP-RTP-interleaved-and-tuning%29

The key function for handling transport layer in gst-rtsp-server is in rtsp-client.c : handle_setup_request(..).

Regards,
Bruce Liang

Subject: RTSP Server with UDP or TCP Streaming

Hi all,

Recently I have got the RTSP server running with Gstreamer. In VLC Client, I can view the stream via: rtsp://user:password@192.168.20.15/myserviceurl<http://user:password@192.168.20.15/myserviceurl>

Currently it appears that the RTSP server is streaming only in UDP by default. When I try to access it with some clients and specify TCP, it doesn't work, although VLC doesn't ask me to specify.

I was trying to see where the protocol UDP or TCP is being set in the Gstreamer RTSP server. We are making the following calls to initialize the server, and I can't seem to find where the protocol is set. Can anyone point me in the right direction.

gst_rtsp_server_new()
gst_rtsp_server_set_address(..)
gst_rtsp_server_set_service( .. )
gst_rtsp_media_factory_new( .. )
gst_rtsp_server_get_mount_points( ..)
gst_rtsp_server_attach( .. )


Thanks in advance !
