Experimental RTSP Support

pgodwin edited this page Aug 5, 2017 · 1 revision

As of 6 Aug 2017 there is experimental RTSP support through FFMPEG.

RTSP allows for the client to receive the video as it's being trans-coded, without having to wait for the encode to complete first. Ie near instant playback for the user. Currently only h263 and alaw audio is used, but should work on the machines capable of support RTSP in the first place.

This support is based around Darwin Streaming Server and is currently hard-coded to a streaming user of "stream" with a password of "stream".

Configuring your RTSP server is done through the YouTubeProxy.config file, specifically the rtspServer setting.

The Test Windows Client currently has support, and I'll push an update of the Macintosh Client soon.
