Re: need help with RSTP

I was able to figure it out. We had our encoders set up for Pull, and when
we changed them to Push, they started to feed video in 1-2 seconds... Mucho
better. I also had to make sure that the Networking preference had Buffer
enabled. I had one configured for Buffer disabled, but it did not help- in
fact it made the delay worse. At any rate, just wanted to let you all know.

Don't know of a reason why HTTP would be any slower startup than other

something else going on. And I don't think there's much threat in opening up
port 554 for RTSP.

I have a question related to this topic, so I thought I'd stick it here...

Currently, our WMS is configured to only stream through port 80 using TCP.
Our Engineers were concerned about opening up all the ports for RTSP and MMS,
so they just used port 80. It's working, except I'm starting to get
complaints about live streams taking too long to start in embedded players on
our website. Will opening up the other ports to our WMS reduce the startup
time for videos in the embedded players on our site? Any thing else I can do
to decrease the buffer and load times?

If you want to force RTSP, yes. Or you can use HTTP to stream to the

AHHH, ok then, I guess my best practice is to use the http protocol to get
to
the live encoders and then in my asx files pointing to the WMS is to use
the
RTSP protocol to stream out to the listeners????


thx

WME only supports HTTP, not RTSP. You have to use WMS for RTSP streams.
FYI,
you can specify RTSPT for TCP and RTSPU for UDP if you want to force one
over
the other.

Also, you can always test connection to TCP ports by telnetting to them:
telnet <server> <port>.

Rich, i feel stupid on the misspelling! I tried it with RTSP and now i
get
a connection failed error?

I am forwarded ports:
tcp - 554 in to encoder
udp - 5005 in to encoder
tcp - 1755 in to encoder


The streaming server is behind a small dlink router also......... i am
doing
a pull from the encoder, does the ports have to open there also?

rstp://streaming.abc.com:2929

each time i try to start the point i get some wierd error like:
"cannot start because of an enumeraton error....."

if i put in:
http://streaming.abc.com:2929
it works fine??????

I thought RSTP was a better streaming protocol for audio and video
streaming?????

advice?
jeff


Try RTSP...not RSTP. ;)
