[Live-devel] Sony cameras and interleaved RTSP

[Deanna Earley]

Morning all.

We've spent the last few weeks tracking down a couple of issues when using Sony G6 cameras and interleaved RTSP.
Several times here (and many times at a customer's), we've seen the camera randomly spit out an RTSP response followed by an RTCP BYE and stopping the stream.
RTSP/1.0 505 RTSP Version not supported
Server: Linux/2.6.35.14_nl-xarina Ze-PRO

This can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 5 hours so isn't a fixed timeout.

We are still using 2009-02-23 (legacy reasons I'm trying to work around and remove) and the error is happening with the compiled openRTSP.exe and our code so I was ready to point the finger at the camera misparsing the interleaved data.
We also tested with VLC (in interleaved mode) and 2014-12-09 and we have not yet seen this issue after 24 hours.

Is this likely to be have been triggered by something in liveMedia that has since been fixed, or should I still chase this up with Sony themselves?

Many thanks
