I've been using live555ProxyServer for a while, starting a couple of years ago and currently using 2019.08.28 from debian unstable.
I'm relaying an authenticated rtsp stream from a webcam. I'm using proxyserver as follows: live555ProxyServer -p 554 -R -U user pass 'rtsp://user:pass@cameraip/videostream' Whenever I open the proxied video stream for the first time in a while, I get the following from the client (ffplay, vlc, or anything else): Playing: rtsp://server/proxyStream [ffmpeg/demuxer] rtsp: method PLAY failed: 454 Session Not Found If I reopen the video stream immediately after that, it works. As long as I keep open a video stream somewhere, the stream starts without issues. I did some tests in the past: - If I open the webcam stream directly, it always works, so even though we're speaking about a cheapo no-brand usb webcam, I didn't have issues when opening the stream directly from it. - I cannot disable authentication on the webcam stream to test if authentication is creating issues. - I can (and tried) disabling authentication in proxyserver, but it made no difference. _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
