Can't play AAC from RTSP stream
Last modified: 2016-02-21 23:13:01 UTC
Created attachment 275580 [details] aac file I have a Ambarella hardware encoder here that produces a RTSP stream. We can't play the AAC with either faad or avdec_aac, indeed sounds suspect. Attaching streams just in case. I extracted the raw AAC from the pcap file using: gst-launch-1.0 -v filesrc location=rtsp.pcap ! pcapparse src-ip=192.168.1.117 src-port=50000 dst-port=55240 ! application/x-rtp, media=audio, payload=98, clock-rate=48000, encoding-name=MPEG4-GENERIC, encoding-params='(string)1', streamtype='(string)5', profile-level-id='(string)41', mode=AAC-hbr, config='(string)1188', sizelength='(string)13', indexlength='(string)3', indexdeltalength='(string)3', profile='(string)1', a-type=broadcast, x-qt-text-inf=stream1, npt-start=0, play-speed=1, play-scale=1 ! rtpmp4gdepay ! aacparse ! filesink location=rtsp.aac
Created attachment 275581 [details] tcpdump capture file
Created attachment 275582 [details] pcap file from VLC Connecting to the same server from VLC, it produces a AAC stream that doesn't break (but that seems empty!)
Can any other software like avplay, mplayer or vlc handle it properly?
The attached .aac file plays fine for me, it's basically just silence with background noise. Unclear if that's what it's supposed to be or not, but VLC plays the same. Not sure if there's more to do here - Olivier? Closing this bug report as no further information has been provided.
