Detailed Description

This describes the server response to each RTSP command.

Member Data Documentation

§ location

char RTSPMessageHeader::location[4096]

the "Location:" field.

This value is used to handle redirection.

§ notice

int RTSPMessageHeader::notice

The "Notice" or "X-Notice" field value.

See http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-stiemerling-rtsp-announce-00 for a complete list of supported values.

§ range_start

int64_t RTSPMessageHeader::range_start

Time range of the streams that the server will stream.

In AV_TIME_BASE unit, AV_NOPTS_VALUE if not used

§ server

char RTSPMessageHeader::server[64]

the "Server: field, which can be used to identify some special-case servers that are not 100% standards-compliant.

We use this to identify Windows Media Server, which has a value "WMServer/v.e.r.sion", where version is a sequence of digits (e.g. 9.0.0.3372). Helix/Real servers use something like "Helix [..] Server Version v.e.r.sion (platform) (RealServer compatible)" or "RealServer Version v.e.r.sion (platform)", where platform is the output of $uname -msr | sed 's/ /-/g'.

§ session_id

char RTSPMessageHeader::session_id[512]

the "Session:" field.

This value is initially set by the server and should be re-transmitted by the client in every RTSP command.

§ timeout

int RTSPMessageHeader::timeout

The "timeout" comes as part of the server response to the "SETUP" command, in the "Session: <xyz>[;timeout=<value>]" line.

It is the time, in seconds, that the server will go without traffic over the RTSP/TCP connection before it closes the connection. To prevent this, sent dummy requests (e.g. OPTIONS) with intervals smaller than this value.

The documentation for this struct was generated from the following file:
