capturing data stream

[telethonic]

Hi,

Thanks for a great library :-)

I'm connecting to an IP cam that also provides a data stream.

ffprobe for example reports: Input #0, rtsp, from 'rtsp://ADMIN:1234@localhost:12003/live/ch8': Metadata: title : Media Server Duration: N/A, bitrate: N/A Stream #0:0: Video: h264, none, 90k tbr, 90k tbn, 180k tbc Stream #0:1: Data: none

Logging the "media" object in RTSPClient.js shows:

media object [[{"rtp":[{"payload":96,"codec":"H264","rate":90000}],"fmtp":[{"payload":96,"config":"packetization-mode=1;profile-level-id=64001F;sprop-parameter-sets=Z0IAKpY1QPAET8s3AQEBAg==,aM48gA=="}],"type":"video","port":0,"protocol":"RTP/AVP","payloads":96,"control":"rtsp://localhost:12003/live/ch8/video"},{"rtp":[{"payload":97,"codec":"VND.ONVIF.METADATA","rate":8000}],"fmtp":[],"type":"application","port":0,"protocol":"RTP/AVP","payloads":97,"control":"rtsp://localhost:12003/live/ch8/meta"}]]

I then changed the next line in RTSPClient.js to:

const mediaSource = media.find(source => source.type === "application" && source.protocol === RTP_AVP);

Which produces:

Connected. Video format is VND.ONVIF.METADATA

Is there anything else that should be changed to just dump data as it comes in?

Thanks for your time :-)

is it possible to make the camera available online and send me the log in details? I can then see what needs adding. Just tried my Hik and Axis cameras and none of the ones I have here include any meta data in the RTSP stream

Thanks for your reply, and sorry for not responding sooner.

It turned out the camera had metadata streaming turned off by default :-/

After switching it on, it arrived ok :-)

Which make/model of camera were you using?

Thanks Roger
