RTSP Authentication...possible?

Postby exxx » 16 Jan 2007 19:27

Hey,

I'm streaming .mp4s ON DEMAND via rtsp://

It works fine but I need to protect the stream with a username/pass.

* Support for RTSP authentication <== in feature specs.

Sadly I have not found any info on this in the docs...can someone help me out here?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

[Edit] If possible I would like to have more than one username/pass.

# rtsp-user (string)
# rtsp-pwd (string)

Username and password for authentication with the server.

That was in the wiki (only found it from IRC)

However it doesn't say how to set up those passwords on the server or how to have multiple logins. Please advise, thanks :)


Also I noticed the HTTP tunneling option...can this be used to limit access via htaccess? If anyone has info on this I would really appreciate it.
