I am sorry if Iitwasn't clear enough. Your suggestion is exactly what I want to do: implement my own LIVE555 transcoding filter (based on libAV). My confusion is about the registering of urls and where to put the libAV play command. Do I need to register two urls: the "normal camerastream" and the "transcoded camerastream", or should it be enough to just use the "transcoded camerastream"? What happens if a player tries to play the "transcoded camerastream"? This will result in sending a RTSP play command to the camera, but does the libAV play command do the same? I have not totally clear what will happen and therefore need some suggestions in the right direction.

best regards,

Frank van Eijkelenburg

Sorry, but I don’t see how your question has anything to do with our software.

From what I can tell, you are using VLC to transcode a RTSP/RTP stream. Although VLC uses our “RTSPClient” code to access the ‘back-end’ RTSP/RTP stream, it doesn’t use any of our code at all (including our ‘proxy server’ code) to do the transcoding, nor to implement the RTSP server for the ‘front-end’ stream. (When VLC acts as a RTSP server, it uses its own RTSP server implementation - not ours.)

You *could*, if you wish, implement your own LIVE555 transcoding filter (e.g., using FFMPEG/libAV) and plug that into our “ProxyServerMediaSession” - to implement a transcoding LIVE555 Proxy RTSP server. But that’s not what VLC is doing; it uses its own software to do this (except for accessing the ‘back-end’ RTSP/RTP stream).

So, you should be asking your question on a VLC mailing list.
