I have a home made RTSP server that streams video to QuickTime clients. Now, I need to support Flash Player clients, because QuickTime needs some configuration to work on Windows, and also there is no implementation of it in Linux distributions. Then I opted for Flash.
BUT: does Flash support RTSP??? If not, where can I find documentation for its streaming protocol so I can build one?
Any details on this will be appreciated… thanx!
<< does Flash support RTSP??? NO.
FLASH is a container, flv is for video and fla for audio. Now.. everything below is Adobe’s product.
a) Adobe’s Streaming Server
b) Adobe’s RTMP Protocol
c) Adobe’s Flash Player
d) F4v/Flv video format
These above software’s are designed specifically for web applications to provide end user seamless, secured, uninterrupted, high quality video.
If you want some hands on then you can try Red5 (Open Source Flash Server written in Java) or rtpmd (C++ RTPM server)
