Bug#982299: vlc: seems related to https://github.com/aler9/rtsp-simple-server/issues/223

2023-03-05 Thread Bryant Eadon
Can you point me to the non-free code ?  RTSP has been a really nice
feature in VLC for some time.

I really would like to see the support continue.  Right now it's difficult
to tell what's happening with the client because there are very vague error
messages in the console :

Your input can't be opened:

VLC is unable to open the MRL 'rtsp://ubnt:admin@192.168.2.76:554/s1'.
Check the log for details.

^ This doesn't give the user a reason without looking deeper...

so we go on to enabling the environment variable to see what's going on :

export VLC_VERBOSE=3

Example:

[7fc288001850] main stream debug: connection succeeded (socket = 43)
[7fc288001850] main stream debug: net: opening 0.0.0.0 datagram port

*[7fc288001850] access_realrtsp stream warning: only real/helix rtsp
servers supported for now*[7fc288001850] main stream debug: no access
modules matched

[5624f6695330] qt interface debug: IM: Deleting the input

(current 1/2)
[5624f664e600] main playlist debug: nothing to play
[5624f6695330] qt interface debug: Video is not needed anymore


The bolded error message is, also, very vague.I need you to tell use which
codecs are rejected and WHY.  Please modify the error message to include
the set of rejected pieces of code, I might even suggest a quick link on
the topic.

Otherwise, since we're talking about free/non-free code, what parts need to
be written as free ?  I'd love to see it as a bounty, write it myself, or
post a bounty for it to be written.


Thanks,

Bryant Eadon

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
Trying to stream a cctv camera. 
   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
 ineffective)?
Linux VLC refused to stream, but Android VLC streamed the camera
   * What was the outcome of this action?

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
For it to work like in Android vlc...
