[Live-devel] Range Header

Thanks for the help.  Also, when I play with a range of "now-60" and a scale of greater than 1 (fast forward) it will play way past 60 seconds although it does stop eventually.  Any idea why?  Thanks.

Thanks for the note.  I have now installed a new version (2012.07.14) of the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" code that updates the RTSP server implementation to properly handle "Range:" headers like "Range: npt=-60". 


(The prebuilt binary versions of the "LIVE555 Media Server" have not yet been updated; for the next few days, if you want to get this change, you will need to download and build the server from source code.)


And yes, the keyword "now" is supposed to be reserved for live events, but in the spirit of "be liberal in what you accept", we also handle it if is used for a prerecorded stream.  (Clients, however, should not be using it for such streams.)
