[FFmpeg-devel] FFMPEG RTSP parameters support

Hi.

It's very normal, e.g. for session IDs or so.

Perhaps we can expand the rtsp.c for that, as another option to AVContext?

About 2nd one, is this supported from command line?
I get "460 Only Aggregate Option Allowed" when trying the following form:
ffmpeg -i "rtsp://192.168.0.150/loadtest.sdp/trackID=1?a=1"
or
ffmpeg -i "rtsp://192.168.0.150/loadtest.sdp/trackID=1?a=1&tcp"

Regards.
