use vlc player to connect MediaServer by using multicast ip address



Hi all,

I use Appro_DM365_IPNC-MT5, there are some essues trouble me.

How to use vlc player to connect MediaServer by using multicast ip address?

Usually,we connect a multicast ip address in vlc like this:
1 Select File – Open Network Stream.
2 Select "UDP/RTP Multicast",Fill the address and port, for example udp://@229.20.0.235:1234


Thanks!

  • Hi,

    I can connect to multicast  by VLC with usual rtsp connection string (e.g. rtsp://192.168.1.168:8557/PSIA/Streaming/channels/2?videoCodecType=H.264).
    You can also make sdp file with appropriate parameters, where you specify at least IP address/port, and h264 SPS/PPS parameters (or MPEG4 vol header).

    Here is my test sdp parameters for 1080p h264 stream.
    Put lines below in the text file, name it like  "test.sdp", and open with vlc.
    Make sure your multicast address, port and sprop-parameter-sets are correct.
    You can get those parameters with openRTSP application.

    Sdp file content :

    i=h264
    t=0 0
    m=video 6032 RTP/AVP 96
    c=IN IP4 234.168.1.168/255
    a=rtpmap:96 H264/90000
    a=fmtp:96 packetization-mode=1;profile-level-id=000042;sprop-parameter-sets=Z2QAKK2EBUViuKxUdCAqKxXFYqOhAVFYrisVHQgKisVxWKjoQFRWK4rFR0ICorFcVio6ECSFITk8nyfk/k/J8nm5s00IEkKQnJ5Pk/J/J+T5PNzZprQDwBE/LgKpAAADAAEAAAMAPGBAAB6EgAACJVFve+F4RCNQAAAAAQ==,aO48sA==
