(If the upstream object has ‘closed', then the “OnClose†function will get called.) In any case, you should never call “getNextFrame()†again until the ‘after getting’ function gets called (indicating the reception of data). In fact, our code is deliberately set up to prevent this (if you try, you’ll get the "attempting to read more than once at the same time†error message).</div><div><br class=""></div><div>You *could*, if you wish, call “stopGettingFrames()â€, and then call “getNextFrame()†again. But what would be the point? The upstream object stopped delivering data for a good reason (presumably because the RTSP server stopped sending data). There’s no point in trying again (other than by tearing down the RTSP session, and creating a new one).</div><br class=""><div apple-content-edited="true" class="">
