[Libav-user] RTP/RTSP support in FFMPEG

[Ankit SINGHAL]

Thanks Luke/Ferdinand/Chris

Do you guys or any one have any idea about CURL? I have to make a choice between FFMPEG or CURL. I am already using both for my current multimedia playbacks, CURL being used for downloading HTTP files. We have not used FFMPEG for HTTP as it was not robust enough.

Hi Luke,

Strange thing is that RTSP / RTP streaming works well with older versions of FFMPEG, it seems that version git-64ad53f from 2010 broke it.
Problem is that the older versions doesn't support the GET_PARAMETER which gives keep-alive problems in some RTSP servers.

Now I would like to play multimedia files from RTSP server. Please let me know if FFMPEG has support for acting as RTSP client and it's robust enough. How can I start using ffmpeg as RTSP client. How is it compared with the support available in CURL? Does FFMPEG have a better support compared to CURL? Please elaborate.
