I.e., don't stream data to a server, and then have the server stream to clients; instead, just stream data directly to clients (via RTSP/RTP). The FAQ describes how to modify our RTSP server implementation (e.g., the "testOnDemandRTSPServer" demo application) to read from a video data source.</div><div><br></div><div>But if you don't want to have clients accessing the data source directly (usually because you don't want more than one concurrent client doing so), then you could instead use a 'proxy' server (such as our existing "LIVE555 Proxy Server") sitting in front of your H.264 server. Then, remote clients (possibly multiple concurrent clients) would access the proxy server, which would then act as a (single) client to your H.264 server.</div><div><br></div><div>Note that in each case you're not 'pushing' data at all. Instead, you are setting up a server for your H.264 video source, and a client (possibly a proxy) is 'pulling' from it.</div></div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
