Hi, I am developing a rtsp server which is based on testOnDemandRTSPServer/mpeg4ESVideoTest. The video source is from a camera instead of files so that I can implement a live video server.
I found When streaming video MPEG4VideoFileServerMediaSubsession reads files from the beginning for several times. It looks like the first time it reads in the header, and next times it reads and really streams the data. If reuseFirstSource is set to True then the file will be opened and read twice. However, if the video is from camera the situation is a little complex. Basically the video data will be discarded once it is read because we have limited buffer. If MPEG4VideoFileServerMediaSubsession has to read video data several times, I have to allocate another buffer to save the data. The question is how many data should be saved (1 or 2 frames or else)? BTW, the multicast applications (testMPEG4VideoStreamer etc) reads the file only for once. -- Bill _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
