Hi Ross, Thanks for the quick response.
I followed your instructions but sadly no joy, but I think I know why. It seems the vpn has been interfering. When I turn off the vpn running just the *unmodified* testH264VideoStreamer with a file as input, it works, I can connect a client to it and play the file. Whilst connected to the VPN (I have to be to access the camera) the openRTSP has to receive via TCP (so flags -t or -T are needed). So my run command looked like this: openRTSP.exe -v -t <camera-stream-rtsp-url> | testH264VideoStreamer.exe and that appears to give me a sensible logging. Then I try to play the multicast stream with VLC, which fails and generates this log: -- logger module started -- main: Running vlc with the default interface. Use 'cvlc' to use vlc without interface. main: playlist is empty live555 error: Failed to connect with <rtsp-streamer-url>/<streamName> satip error: Failed to setup RTSP session -- logger module stopped -- Then I tried to play it a couple of different ways with a second instance of openRTSP like so: 1) openRTSP.exe -v -P 30 <rtsp-streamer-url> This generates me output files every 30 seconds, unfortunately they contain no data. (As I say this seems to be the VPN blocking me here). I didn't expect these to work due to the multicast stream using UDP but included for completeness sake. 2) openRTSP.exe -v -t <rtsp-streamer-url> This generates sensible sdp data then outputs "Failed to setup "video/H264" subsession: 461 Unsupported Transport". 3) openRTSP.exe -v -T 80 <rtsp-streamer-url> This generates the following output: Created new TCP socket 172 for connection Connecting to <rtsp-streamer-url>, port 80 on socket 172... ...Connection to server failed: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it Created new TCP socket 172 for connection Connecting to <rtsp-streamer-url>, port 80 on socket 172... ...Connection to server failed: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it Failed to get a SDP description for the URL <rtsp-streamer-url>/streamName: Connection to server failed: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it _______________________________________________ live-devel mailing list live-devel@lists.live555.com http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel
