i recompiled mplayer.dll with rtsp support, but xbmc just freezes after it connects to rtsp server. windows version of mplayer connects nicely to rtsp server. xbmc.log shows following lines:

18-02-2006 02:10:10 debug msg:protocol:rtsp

it seems that xbmc supports rtp out of box. so i think it is wise to use it and make python script which handles rtsp protocol part. then channel changing delay will be smaller because we don't have start mplayer again. somebody here who is good in python and is willing to help?. it would be nice if we can do osd with python?

hello

+1 for this feature, french python scripter for xbmc (beginner not a professionnal, but succeed some nice looking scripts). i'm using the same ip "freeadsl" with "freebox" modem, and i really want to get this rtsp stream on to my xbmc...

i made a lot of search on internet to find some python snippets to catch rtsp stream or something like this, but can't find anything.

a very good thing would be to watch from mplayer on xbmc the tv. but the biggest feature would be to get access to the stream, to catch it for recording on hdd

i'm not good at all in xbmc coding, but i know xbmc use cpp files as sources. i found this openrtsp that can play rtsp streaming :
http://www.live555.com/openrtsp/

i hope this can help and really , i promess that french xbmc and freebox users will be sooo happy with this support !

if you find something interesting concerning python and rtsp, just tell me , i will try to find something interesting

hi

i trying to watch streamed television on the xbox, but having some problems. i have an account at streamtv.dk. they broadcast in a few different formats. i can watch the streams in both quicktime and vlc. i asked them, if they could make support for xbmc, and they replied:
Quote:as far as it's known, xbmc still doesn't support rtsp stream mpeg-4, but almost. support for xvid and aac does, that it close. it can play files, but not streams yet.

is there really no support for rtsp stream mpeg-4?

free has just announced the availability of the mode multipost for freebox. this service makes it possible to look the channels of television at the same time on the pc and television. freebox can send to the maximum 8 fluxs simultaneously, and... it is possible to look at 2 different channels!

the freebox have now a server rtsp and http, and is capable of diffuse mpeg2 ts flux to ethernet, usb et wifi.

the server http able you to download a playlist, who have the urls rtsp for each channels available for you.

http://mafreebox.freebox.fr/freeboxtv/playlist.m3u

it work with vlc and mplayer, but not with realplayer for the moment.

the freebox only support transport rtp/avp/udp and is limited to 8 sessions simultaneously.

since it work for me on the pc with vlc, how can i read the flux rtsp from my freebox to xbmc, when i launch the m3u it say :

not a realmedia rtsp url. trying standard rtsp pro...

and nothing.. even if i only put the rtsp url on a text file renamed .strm

:help:

here what is in the playlist.m3u generated by the freebox

hi !

it seems that vlc need the lib live555 and libdvbpsi to read the stream from freebox "multitv".

is there something in the libdvbpsi that isn't on mplayer so we can't read on xbmc ? is it portable ?

don't have the knowledges to do it but maybe this could help to progress in this way  :d
Sorry for my...english :blush:

hi everybody

I finnally got a python script that handle rtsp requests and send back on http, the video datas. Then MPlayer is just fine to read it ! Big Grin
it works for our french modem 'freebox' nad for VLC as RTSP server.
I don't know other servers that use rtsp urls, so I can't really test.

This one is able to serve several client at once for several servers ! Isn't that beautiful ?
Another French coder is preparing a PC interface to start VLC as RTSP server and to set some of your videos for streaming. This is just nice because A client ask to the proxy for a video, VLC encode it and stream it. So this proxy can be used to watch videos that can't be watched on your XBMC.

RTSP support would be awesome. This would make XBMC work together with Mediaportals TV Server

See: http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showth...hp?t=12466
frodo Wrote:First:
Other clients (like) XBMC could already use the tvserver if they
add support for playing back RTSP streams.

Second:
upnp might be added in the future who knows, but there are no plans for it at this moment.
