Re: garbled movies over rtsp



While there are many things that could be causing this. One non-obvious one is to switch the player to use HTTP instead of UDP and open up port 80 (or some other port) on the streaming server. UDP tends to toss packets at the drop of a hat, while TCP (which HTTP uses for the streaming connection) is more efficient and reliable mover of data. Some words of caution, TCP tends to degrade less gracefully than UDP and uses resources on routers and switches to maintain the connection. Also, port 80 is used by most Web Portal servers so you may have to pick another port if you're running it on the same machine.

Hi:

I'm using QTSS publisher to put movie clips online, but I'm having trouble getting the movies to stream reliably. Sometimes they work fine, but other times they are really garbled. I use QT PRO to export the movies with what I thought were the right settings. What could cause the movies to work sometimes, but not other times? I'm having trouble even with low data rates at high bandwidths.

Is there any documentation online that you could direct me to that would help me out with any of this? I'm relatively new to streaming.

Thanks!
