vlc play error

[huoyee]

Dear friends,

I want to play a rtsp stream by vlc. I used live555 for rtsp server and have started it by command of "testOnDemandRTSPServer". It generated the following information:

"mpeg4ESVideoTest" stream, from the file "test.m4e"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg4ESVideoTest"

"mpeg1or2AudioVideoTest" stream, from the file "test.mpg"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg1or2AudioVideoTest"

"mpeg1or2ESVideoTest" stream, from the file "testv.mpg"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg1or2ESVideoTest"

"mp3AudioTest" stream, from the file "test.mp3"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mp3AudioTest"

"wavAudioTest" stream, from the file "test.wav"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/wavAudioTest"

"amrAudioTest" stream, from the file "test.amr"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/amrAudioTest"

"vobTest" stream, from the file "test.vob"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/vobTest"

"mpeg2TransportStreamTest" stream, from the file "test.ts"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg2TransportStreamTest"

"aacAudioTest" stream, from the file "test.aac"
Play this stream using the URL "rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/aacAudioTest"


Then I used command of " vlc rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg1or2ESVideoTest" on another terminal, but it produced error:

[0x9858840] live555 demux error: Failed to connect with rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg1or2ESVideoTest
[0x9511428] main input error: open of `rtsp://192.168.142.129:8554/mpeg1or2ESVideoTest' failed: (null)

Why this happens and how to solve it,please?

Thank you!

Wireshark might give you more details about why the opening fails (RTSP negotiation issue, firewall issue, or...).
