openRTSP</title></head><body>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>I'm trying to capture an MPEG4 RTP stream
(sent by QTSS via QuickTime Broadcaster) to a file using openRTSP.
The problem i'm seeing is that, when I try to open this file,
the system (Mac OSX 10.5.4) tells me that it's not a movie file.
My openRTSP command looks like this:</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>pugsleypoo:testProgs jmzorko$ ./openRTSP
-4 -w 320 -h 240 -f 30 <a
href="rtsp://10.0.1.199:554/pugscam.sdp"
>rtsp://10.0.1.199:554/pugscam.sdp</a> > pugscam.mp4</blockquote>
<div><br></div>
<div>A couple of quick questions:</div>
<div>1/ Are you able to play the stream
rtsp://10.0.1.199:554/pugscam.sdp in a media player (QuickTime Player
or VLC)?</div>
<div>2/ Are you making sure that "openRTSP" terminates
properly? You can't just <control>-C it, otherwise the
resulting output file will be incomplete. You have to terminate
it with "kill -HUP", or else specify a specific duration in
advance, using the "-d <duration>" option.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>If both of these are true, then I don't know what the problem
might be; you should ask a QuickTime mailing list why the file won't
play.</div>
