Thanks for quick reply.
I'm looking for a gracefull shutdown, so that the client will know
that the session is closed.
There is the server-to-client ANNOUNCE method, something like this:
ANNOUNCE rtsp://server/asset RTSP/1.0
CSeq: 1
Session: 1234
Notice: 2101 End of Stream
I think use of ANNOUNCE for this, and the 'Notice' header, come from a
pre-RTSP-1.1 draft by Sheedy (nCube):
http://www-rn.informatik.uni-bremen.de/ietf/mmusic/47/id/draft-sheedy-mmusic-rtsp-ext-00.txt
(sec. 5.1)
There are also some attempts to reintroduce it in RTSP/2.0 - e.g.
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-stiemerling-rtsp-announce-01
Several set-top-boxes (e.g Amino) and commercial servers (including
ours) support it. I don't know if Live555 supports ANNOUNCE, though -
Ross?
Alternatively, we've found that VLC will accept an empty RTP packet as
indicating end-of-stream, so we do that too. Non-standard, but not
entirely unreasonable, I guess.
Hope this helps
Paul
