VLC as RTSP Server

[jockyw2001]

VLC as RTSP server works nicely in my LAN.
The command lines which work are as follows for VLC server (includes video transcoding):

Code: Select all

:sout=#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=384,width=320,height=240}:rtp{dst=192.168.1.29,port=1234,sdp=rtsp://192.168.1.29:7070/test.sdp}

and for VLC client:

Code: Select all

rtsp://192.168.1.29:7070/test.sdp

However, I have the special need that the url on client side should be without the reference to a file. So it should be just:

Code: Select all

rtsp://192.168.1.29:7070

The reason is that I have a mobile device client sw which only can play URLs formatted as rtsp://ip:port

I've dropped "/test.sdp" at the server side and it happily starts streaming. However when I test with a VLC client using

Code: Select all

rtsp://192.168.1.29:7070

there is following error:

Code: Select all

main debug: looking for access_demux module: 1 candidate live555 error: describeURL failed (cannot handle DESCRIBE response: RTSP/1.0 404 Not found)

How can I make it work?

Hum, this looks like a duplicate of a previous forum post I'll answer it anyway just in case: Try removing "/test.sdp" in your server command line.

Right Nice to see how you handle a batch of support requests.

I already tried that ...
