If you want to relay a unicast RTSP/RTP stream into a multicast RTSP/RTP
stream, then something like the following should work:
1/ Modify “testH264VideoStreamer.cpp” to change the “inputFileName” variable
from "test.264” to “stdin”. Recompile “testH264VideoStreamer”.
2/ Then you can run “openRTSP -v” to receive the unicast RTSP/RTP stream, and
then ‘pipe’ the resulting H.264 video stream into your modified
“testH264VideoStreamer”. I.e., run - from the command line (sorry, this works
for a Unix command line; I don’t know if it’ll work in Windows):
openRTSP -v 'rtsp://<ip address>/axis-media/media.amp?camera=1’ |
your-modified-testH264VideoStreamer
(Unfortunately this is as much help as I can give you here ‘for free’ on this
mailing list. If your company is interested in having me consult further on
your project, then please have your management let me know (via separate
email).)
