iOS 17 Made my MobileVLCKit 3.5.1 App stop working with RTSP

[MaxRemote4]

Hi I have a popular iOS App called Remote4 to view RTSP Cameras.
With the release of iOS 17 it stopped working.
The main message seems to be: "Unable to determine our source address: This computer has an invalid IP address: 0.0.0.0"
Please see the file attached logs...

To help you, we need messages, to completely understand what your problems is.

From windows command line or linux or macos terminal, launch vlc with options -vv and --logfile=file

• Windows example: vlc.exe -vv --logfile=c:\vlclog.txt
• Linux example: vlc -vv --logfile=vlclog.txt, or vlc -vv 2>&1 > logfile.txt

Then paste the full resulting log here between [​code]and[​/code] (or use Pastebin.com if it's too long)

Also don't forget to name your Operating System and provide the VLC media player version.

Hi, i have same issue ang got stuck for 4 days trying everything, it seems only this problem with the rtsp, if you try http streaming, it will work. but i hope the problem get fixed for the rtsp.

[Moa2023]

Hi, i have a temporary solution for you, it worked for me by disabling the local network option in the ioS setting by doing following:
1- Open Setting.
2- Go to your App, and click on it.
3- Disable Local Network.
Hope this will work for you.

I am still searching for permanent solution!

[Moa2023]

Hi MaxRemote4,
I found the solution, you need to request Multicast Networking Entitlement from Apple using the following:

https://developer.apple.com/contact/req ... -multicast

After that, go to your App identifier in the apple developer and you will find a new tap with additional Capabilities then enable Multicast Networking!

Hope this will help you and fix your problem, let me know if this helped you!

Indeed, you'll need the multicast network entitlement for SDP.

[MaxRemote4]

Thanks!
Just sent the request, I hope this works!
Will keep you posted.
