GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 302482
Support for Apples RTSP
Last modified: 2008-06-03 17:39:44 UTC
I would like to suggest a plugin that can stream and dump Apple's RTSPtextRTSP:// protocol. www.live.com have succeeded in reverse engineering it, which untill now couldn't be streamed on Linux. With the program openRTSP, which comes with LIVE, it is possible to stream or dump those files. MPlayer uses this library for streaming Real's RTSP, but MPlayer doesn't support Apple's RTSP. You can try it out by typing: openRTSP -4 -t -E 100 -b 2000000 RTSP://130.226.1.16/nbi/JensMKnudsen-high.mp4 > jmk.mp4 # -4 mp4 # -q mov # -t tcp/ip # -E close connection after n sec. # -b buffer size The source can be downloaded from: http://www.live.com/liveMedia/public/ http://www.live.com/liveMedia/public/live-latest.tar.gz If you go to the first link, you can read the ChangeLog. Would this be a good idea for GStreamer?
Created attachment 45890 [details] This embedded .mov object that is used on the website The attached file is the mov file that contains the RTSPtextRTSP:// link. It can also be found at http://www.gamma.nbi.dk/jmk-high.html http://www.gamma.nbi.dk/jmk-low.html
Would be awesome to have in 0.10.
For information, the live website is now : http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/ (the live.com was bought up my Microsof (which I guess makes them 666)). But on the other hand, it seems we already have an rtsp source in 0.10 (rtspsrc from gst-plugins-good). I unfortunately can't try it on the given files. Martin, could you give us any feedback ?

We realy need normal rtsp support.
This is actually just a playlist like: RTSP[\r\n]text[\r\n]<URL> Reassigning to totem.
