> 1)  When I am running OpenRTSP to play H.264 RTSP stream coming from a camera, it creates video-H264-1 file. What type of file is that?

It's a H.264 video Elementary Stream file (with MPEG 'start codes' 0x00000001 inserted at the front of each NAL unit).


> I tried to run this file in vlc player but it doesn't run at all.

This is not a VLC mailing list.  However, the problem is that VLC cannot figure out this file type just from its contents.  However, if you rename the file with a ".h264" filename suffix, then VLC should be able to play it.


>  2) I want to take the H.264 streaming using live555 library and feed to ffmpeg library

This is not a "ffmpeg" mailing list.
