[Live-devel] Metadata missing from mp3 stream using RTSP livemediaserver app

[Ashish Mathur]

Hi Ross,
I am using livemediaserver.exe to stream a mp3 audio file. At the client
side i am using openRTSP client application
to receive the data. After receiving the data audio-mpa-1 is created. On
observing the data in this file
i found that the metadata information of MP3 file (ID3 tag etc are
missing..) is not present. Instead file starts with FF FB hex values
which point to an mp3 audio frame (the actual data).
so, my question is that are the RTSP servers not supposed to stream metadata
information contained in
a mp3 or any container? Do the RTSP servers demux the stream at their end
and the clients do not require to demux the received stream??
Does the client comes to know about the stream only through SDP description?

Regards,
Ashish
