[Live-devel] Live stream from network camera to streaming server object

[Vadim]

Hi,

I want to develop small application that performs a kind of "advanced relay".

I have network camera with hardware MPEG4ES encoder.

Running openRTSP to it works perfect.

The final idea is to perform a kind of stream relay from the remote  
network camera device to a local network.

After such "relaying", the stream will be accessible from the local  
network using multicast server object.

I use openRTSP sample as an "input module" of the application, and  
testMPEG4VideoStreamer as an "output module".

The
final idea is to have a possibility to connect to multicast RTSP source
located in local network by reusing already received stream from remote
camera.

       ------------------> Local Network Client Player


    ------------------> Local Network Client Player



Q` 1:

Is this the right way to achieve this? I mean, am I using the right LM  
objects and flow?



After
deep scanning of mail list, I've found a number of explanations close
to testMPEG4VideoStreamer sample, where the actual stream comes from

some kind of FramedSouce (device or file).



How
can I get this object (or, more exaclty type of MediaSource -  
*videoSource) in order
to perform the next call,  as described in testMPEG4VideoStreamer
sample:

                     videoSink->startPlaying(*videoSource,  
afterPlaying, videoSink);

that will add the streaming source (input) to server object(output)?



Q` 2: (in case Q`1 is OK)



What
is the the right way to get MediaSource/FramedSource object from
existing RTSPClient connection to remote network camera (openRTSP code flow)?
