[Live-devel] Auto-detect RTSP streams

[Peter Shaw]

Hi,

I have only found OpenRTSP today in regard to being asked to look at  
capturing H.263/H.264 RTSP feeds. i have successfully compiled and  
captured to disk as quicktime movies already (something I was having  
issues doing with other tools). Thanks for you work on this code!

My question is that we have some feeds that are activated  
intermittently for video conference purposes that we wish to capture.  
could you suggest any way for presence detection of a stream from a  
fixed ip (say by polling for a valid stream) then activating and  
deactivating capture accordingly??  Its just when I was testing I ran  
a capture when the unit was was not streaming and it did not seem to  
produce any notification/error a stream was not present.

I'm not a developer but if i need I can probably get someone from one  
of dev teams to have a look at, apologies if I have missed something  
obvious - if you can point me in the right direction i would appreciate.

FYI I am running OS X 10.4.2 (8C46) the video conf box is a codian  
producing (?-Law 2:1, Mono, 8.000 kHz H.263, 352 x 288) output.

cheers

Pete Shaw
