To no avail, I have searched the archives, google, etc...
I have a network video camera that can be accessed via an rtsp URL
(rtps://mycamera/imgstream.jpg). I want to use QTSS to allow many
users to view this stream using multicast. I can't figure out how to
configure this. I can open QT Player and type the above URL into "Open
URL in a new window" and it plays just fine.
What I envision is a unicast stream between the camera and the QTSS
machine, then a multicast stream out of QTSS to the viewers. All
viewers are on the same LAN, so I can (and due to bandwidth, must) use
multicast.
I figure I would test this in two steps:
1. configure the system to get QTSS to provide multiple unicast
streams, thereby relieving the camera of the stream request load.
2. change from multiple unicast streams to multicast.
All of the tutorials assume you are using a broadcasting application -
I'm not - what do I need to do to configure QTSS to receive and
rebroadcast the stream from the camera. Everything talks about putting
the SDP file in the media directory - I don't have an SDP file.
Am I going to have to manually create an SDP file?
Any help in getting past step 1 would greatly be appreciated - pointers
to information would be quite acceptable. I found the soundscreen.com
site and it looks like it MAY help me with step 2, we'll see when I get
to that step. I just need to get past step 1 first.
Thank you,
