[Live-devel] Live Streaming to Nokia/RealPlayer with DarwinInjector

Thu Oct 27 14:58:32 PDT 2005

I'm having some problems figuring out why this isn't working, and how I
can get it to work.

I have a live AMR-NB stream, which I feed to a Darwin Streaming Server
using LiveMedia/DarwinInjector. QuickTime, RealPlayer 10 and cellphones
not using RealPlayer get the stream fine and play it correctly. 

But my Nokia phones with the RealMedia Player (mc.26.08.01 (s60;
epoc_av21_thumb)) refuses to play the stream at all. It gets the sdp
file, issues a PLAY command, and I can see the server sending it lots of
UDP packets. The sample_50kbit.3gp file that shipped with DSS plays just
fine, so I know it's not a firewall/networking issue.

To make matters more confusing, testOnDemandRTSPServer with the same
AMR-NB live stream piped into stdin plays correctly on the Nokia
RealMedia Player. 

After comparing just about everything, all I can find that's different
is:

npt=0.000- vs npt=now-
track1 vs trackID=1
placing of the "c=IN IP4 0.0.0.0" line in the sdp file
a=type:broadcast only in LiveMedia

RTP/AVP;unicast;source=80.91.34.234;client_port=34152-34153;server_port=6970-6971
vs
RTP/AVP;unicast;destination=192.168.83.100;client_port=34152-34153;server_port=6970-6971

If I look at the packets sent to the cellphone, only the LiveMedia
stream contains a marker flag in the first UDP packet sent. 

Anyone have any ideas as to how to get the stream to play on the Nokia
Real players as well? I've tried adding a b=AS:10 line, but it still
doesn't work. I'm probably missing something obvious, and hopefully this
is doable (even though the RealPlayer is a bit .. picky).
