SDP file raw video

[xamix]

Hi,

I'm in the process of testing a RTP stream that I generate in accordance with RFC4175: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4175#section-6.2
The RTP contain raw RGB image with 8bits depth for each color (24bits per pixels)

The following is my SDP file (raw.sdp):

v=0
o=- 1 1 IN IP4 192.168.99.200
s=-
c=IN IP4 192.168.99.100
t=0 0
a=recvonly
a=type:broadcast
m=video 5004 RTP/AVP 99
a=rtpmap:99 raw/90000
a=fmtp:99 sampling=RGB; width=80; height=60; depth=8; colorimetry=SMPTE240M

Can someone indicate to me how to play the RTP stream by passing SDP file as parameter to vlc?
I tryed with command line "vlc.exe raw.sdp" but it seem that nothing is done, even the port 5004 is not opened because I see in Wireshark that the port is not opened (ICMP message indicate that port is not reachable)
Also I tried with the GUI by selecting rtp://192.168.99.200:5004 in network stream, now the port seem to be opened because no more ICMP message are sent but it indicate to me:

SDP required:
A description in SDP format is required to receive the RTP stream. Note that rtp:// URIs cannot work with dynamic RTP payload format (99).

But I don't know how to indicate the sdp file with a local folder.

Any idea?

Regards.

Open a file containing the SDP.

I'have already done that, VLC is opening but nothing is playing and as I said, no UDP port is opened on the passed port 5004 with this technique.
I'have take a look into VLC source code and what I've found is that my raw format seem handled by VLC in output server mode because rtpfmt.c as code relying on that:

case VLC_CODEC_RGB24:
rtp_fmt->ptname = "RAW";
rtp_fmt->pf_packetize = rtp_packetize_rgb24;
if( asprintf( &rtp_fmt->fmtp,
"sampling=RGB; width=%d; height=%d; "
"depth=8; colorimetry=SMPTE240M",
p_fmt->video.i_visible_width,
p_fmt->video.i_visible_height ) == -1 )
{
rtp_fmt->fmtp = NULL;
return VLC_ENOMEM;
}

But I cannot found any parsing or codec for input stream with the format.

Also the following file https://github.com/videolan/vlc/blob/5a ... /rtp/rtp.c may indicate in comment that SDP parser is not implemented:

/*
* TODO: so much stuff
* - send RTCP-RR and RTCP-BYE
* - dynamic payload types (need SDP parser)
* - multiple medias (need SDP parser, and RTCP-SR parser for lip-sync)
* - support for stream_filter in case of chained demux (MPEG-TS)

SDP are handled by live555 because there are no sponsors to develop proper support in VLC. So you'd have to check live555.

I will check live555.

In the mean time I'have checked 'ffmpeg' which have a parser for SDP with RFC4175 (raw uncompressed video on RTP) since begining of this year:
https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/m ... _rfc4175.c

But it seem to handle only 'YCbCr-4:2:2' color format, not RGB format for the moment.

VLC do not use also ffmpeg for SDP?
