RTSP Stream Playback #1

Open lmangani opened 2 years ago

lmangani commented 2 years ago

Thank you so much for sharing this project and your blog post!

I had no trouble compiling and scanning for cameras, but I can't get streaming to work with VLC. The SDP SmarterDog emits looks fine to me, but VLC seems to send RR or some other unhandled payload causing the 405s below. Is this perhaps something you've observed before? Could you suggest an RTSP player you're using to consume the streams?

Hey Lorenzo, I think I have only tried to use this with mplayer and Surveillance Station on a Synology device. If you want to find out what kind of request is causing the 405 you could uncomment line 97 in rtspconnection.cpp and see what is logged. Depending on what it is it might be possible to implement it a either a dummy function or a full feature.

Thanks @eriknl this helps!

Did you use any particular syntax for mplayer to decode the streams?

I just ran mplayer rtsp://<url>. Did you get 405 responses with mplayer too? Maybe you can post the output from the terminal to see what is going on. If possible it might be helpful to have a packet capture to analyze this.
