[Live-devel] RTSP server to handle receiving data from other Sockets and the RTSP clients

[Victor Lee]

Hi Ross,

Thank you very much for your suggestion. I am not clear with the 2nd part of 
your suggestion.
Could you please tell me a little bit more about this? What is "the name of 
the socket in the file system"?

I am implementing the application in windows environment.
The socket servers are running on one computer, each socket sending a stream 
in a loop using:
      bytesSent = send(serverSocket, sendBuf, DataBlockSize, 0);
For each socket server, i need a corresponding socket client to receive the 
stream data, also in a loop using:
      bytesRecved  = recv(ClientSocket, recvBuf, DataBlockSize, 0);
How can i pass the data received in recvBuf to RTSP server? Should the part 
implementing the Socket Client to receive the data in 
testOnDemandRTSPServer? I have no idea on how to deal with the loop to 
receive the Socket data and the doEventLoop() in testOnDemandRTSPServer in 
one process.

I tried to modify ByteStreamFileSource, and then pass the data in recvBuf to 
fTo, but there are problems: cannot support multiple RTSP Clients, and data 
received cannot be controled as reading from file (where fMaxSize is changed 
each time reading from the file).

I appreciate your help! Many thanks!

Vic
