[Live-devel] restreaming RTSP as multicast ...

[Shyam Kaundinya]

Hi

I have an RTSP source which doesn't do multicast. My goal is to receive this RTSP stream and re-stream it over multicast. What is the best way to accomplish that ?
One thought I had was to write a program similar to the testRTSPClient to receive RTP (and its FramedSource object) and then use a H265VideoRTP sink created on a groupSock to send out the data. Is this the right approach or is there a better way ?

That should work, yes.

However, 4 days ago, you were going on about how you wanted to re-stream this H.265 video within a Transport Stream sent over raw-UDP multicast. That’s quite different from what you’re talking about now (streaming H.265 video over RTP multicast).

You should really make up your mind before bothering the 1200+ busy professionals on this mailing list :-)
