[Live-devel] TLS over RTSP

[Alejandro Ferrari]

Ross,

Yes sure! thanks for the help, really I'm evaluating replacement to our
current media server, I like but just need some security features that I
saw build-in into Live555 Streaming media.

When I say Business Logic, I mean that we need be able to authenticate the
user with our Rest Service, and can handle MP4 file names in base to the
camera id, thinks like this... we are using Java media server with and API,
my question is related to this part, if we can add custom handlers to
capture some events, like login, and recordings.

Sorry for my English, and regards from Argentine.

Alejandro
