I used gst-rtsp-server as streaming server and vlc as the streaming clinet.For getting the tcp connection i set up the port of gst-rtsp-server as port 80.Connection became tcp,but gettingo only one or two stuked images.And the color combination of images were destroyed.(red color became violet and blue became orange....etc)..But if the connection is udp,only the problem is with bandwidth.The colour combination of video is working well.


I tried it with Darwin+realone player ,and got very good image clarity in both tcp(http tunneling) and udp.


Following is the log that i got for gst-rtsp-server+vlc combination.
