Hi Ross,
Thank you for the reply. Not to get too far off-topic, but the Live Media Server documentation has a section describing support for Apple products and states the following: As a special case, the server can also stream MPEG Transport Stream files to iPhones and iPads, using Apple's "HTTP Live Streaming" mechanism. (A single server can stream the same file(s) using either RTSP/RTP (to standard RTSP/RTP clients such as VLC), or using HTTP (to "Safari" on iPhones and iPads).) For a streamed file to be viewable on an iPhone or iPad, it must be a MPEG Transport Stream file with H.264 video, encoded using H.264 "Baseline profile 3.0, Baseline profile 3.1, or Main profile 3.1", or just "Baseline 3.1" for older iPhones. Also, each such Transport Stream file must have a corresponding 'index file'. (However, unlike some other streaming servers for iPhones/iPads, the Transport Stream files are not broken up into segments; instead, they are left intact.) To view such a stream from an iPhone or iPad, you do so using the "Safari" browser app, and use a "http://"; URL, not a "rtsp://" URL. Specifically, you enter an URL of the form http://<server-name-or-ip-address>:<http-port-number>/<filename> The above is the setup I am using and it definitely supports an http://... URL so long as the transport stream file is located in the same directory as the liveMediaServer binary.

I have a MPEG transport stream capture (file.ts) and have generated the index file (file.tsx). These files are located in a subdirectory ("dir") under the directory in which live555MediaServer is launched. Once live555 is launched, I can connect and play the file as: rtsp://ip_address/dir/file.ts I cannot connect and play the file as: http://ip_address/dir/file.ts However, if I move the files into the same directory that contains live555MediaServer, both scenarios below work fine: rtsp://ip_address/file.ts http://ip_address/file.ts Am I doing something wrong? Any advice for me? It's important that live555 be able to stream content located in subdirectories. Thank you! Zach -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

URLs are all that it supports. It does not support ?http://? URLs. (The server *does* open a HTTP port, but this is used for (optional) RTSP-over-HTTP, which uses ?rtsp://? URLs, jus like regular RTSP.)
