[Live-devel] RTSPserver rangeStart > duration with duration=0

[PROMONET Michel]

                Hi Ross,

The problem we have is not exactly this, if the answer to the DESCRIBE send to the player the duration, when the player send a PLAY with a range "25-" (ommiting duration not setting it to 0) the range is cleared by the RTSPServer implementation.

But perhaps it's better to answer to the PLAY with a correct range instead of reseting it using the input range ?

Best Regards,

                Michel.

Could you help us to understand the behaviour of RTSP server play when no duration is specified.

Quite simply: If a stream has no duration, then seeking is not supported - at all.  (Streams without a duration are usually either 'live' streams, or else are from a file for which (because of the media type) we could not determine its duration.  In either case, 'seeking' wouldn't really make sense.)
