new udp-reconnect property (4.30 KB, patch)
2012-09-13 05:14 UTC, Aleix Conchillo Flaqué 		none Details | Review

Description Aleix Conchillo Flaqué 2012-09-13 05:04:35 UTC 
Current rtspsrc implementation tries to reconnect whenever the RTSP connection socket is closed by the server (GST_RTSP_EEOF). It would be good to let the client decide whether it wants to perform this reconnection or just abort.

The two places where reconnection is done are:

- gst_rtspsrc_loop_udp
- gst_rtspsrc_try_send (when reading for the response)

Reconnection is not done in interleaved mode (TCP).

new udp-reconnect property

From the commit log:

added new "udp-reconnect" property. Before, rtspsrc always tried to reconnect to the server when the RTSP connection was closed by the server. This property lets the user decide whether it wants rtspsrc to reconnect or not.
