Let's say in your case, MPlayer is the client program and VLC is the server program. The source & sink here mean the objects within a program. For your instance of the MPlayer program, the source is H264VideoRTPSource and the sink is some kind of renderer. You will find H264VideoRTPSink in your VLC.<BR> <BR>

I <BR>> appreciate it very much. It is so nice to get responses. This is a <BR>> very nice community of developers. I hope that one day, I can be a <BR>> helpful person too.<BR>> <BR>> I have a follow up question regarding several of your responses.<BR>> <BR>> I was told to understand the difference between source and sink. I was <BR>> told that a source is used for streaming (out), while a sink is for <BR>> receiving. I read the FAQ. <BR>> <BR>> I have been stepping through mplayer with gdb to try to find out where I <BR>> insert the NAL startcode and how.<BR>> <BR>> Now when I use tab-completion to create my break point in gdb, it will <BR>> not allow me to add H264VideoRTPSink. It will only allow me to add <BR>> H264VideoRTPSource.<BR>> <BR>> I am using VLC to stream an H264 video via RTP using an sdp file. <BR>> Mplayer is receiving this video that is to say, the role of the mplayer <BR>> in this scenerio is the "sink". And mplayer seems to be working fine. <BR>> The video is displayed like I expect.<BR>> <BR>> Why am I not finding H264VideoRTPSink when I step through this running code?<BR>> <BR>> I have tried stepping through openRTSP. But, I can't find what I need. <BR>> Perhaps, it is in playCommon. But, I haven't figured out how to debug <BR>> playCommon since it requires input from openRTSP. If anyone has any <BR>> help for that, I'd appreciate that too.<BR>> <BR>> Thank you,<BR>> Estelle<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> live-devel mailing list<BR>> live-devel@lists.live555.com<BR>> http://lists.live555.com/mailman/listinfo/live-devel<BR> </body>
