Can live555 stream H.264 or MPEG4 video to rtp://<multicast addr>:1234 without using RTSP to set-up the stream (e.g. the client might be on a different subnet to the live555 server) ?
I am extending a program (a camera application running on Embedded Linux and using live555 to serve the video streams) to add multicast streams. Using rtsp://user:pass@<camera addr>:8554/streamname in VLC I can view each multicast stream. Using rtp://<multicast addr>:<rtp port> I cannot view a stream (even if another instance of VLC has already started that stream on the same client PC). Is the password authentication causing a problem ? When I connect using RTSP each stream's ServerMediaSession reference count (from sms->referenceCount(), where sms was created with ServerMediaSession *sms = ServerMediaSession::createNew(...) ) increments with each new multicast connection. Is this a count of the number of clients connected to the multicast stream ?
