This will also detect situations where the camera server remains alive, but has stopped streaming data for some reason.<div><br></div><div>On way to do this is the create a delayed event - using "TaskScheduler::scheduleDelayedTask()" - for (e.g.) 1 second, after you've received the response to the RTSP "PLAY" command, and then reschedule the event - using "TaskScheduler::rescheduleDelayedTask()" - each time new data arrives. If the delayed event gets called, then you know that no new data has arrived within the delay period (e.g., 1 second).</div><br><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
