Can't test gst-rtsp-server

  • 772

Related to this post (read first for context)

I managed to manually compile the gst-rtsp-server.

I then tried to use the test-launch example given within the github repo I cloned.

$ cd (myRepo)/gst-rtsp-server/examples
$ ./test-launch "( videotestsrc ! x264enc ! rtph264pay name=pay0 pt=96 )"

I then downloaded VLC media player and launched it within a terminal, but when I try to play the resulting stream rtsp://127.0.0.1:8554/test, I get errors. enter image description here

Am I doing something wrong?

Why can't VLC connect to my rstp server and stream what's diffused(the test video)?

vlc gstreamer rtsp

  1. I have a similar issue. My workaround right now is to launch Firefox and enter rtsp://(ip):(port)/test. This allows me to launch either VLC or the built-in Videos application in Ubuntu. Both work fine when launched from Firefox.
