Actually I found this interesting thread: http://lists.whatwg.org/htdig.cgi/whatwg-whatwg.org/2009-August/021812.html
So, please someone tell me if I'm wrong but it seems it is up to the browser to support (or not) the various media containers/codecs. I think the unsupported-rtsp.html test is a consequence of https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26416 And in the media player code of the mac port I see it is indeed disabled "for now" by checking the uri scheme. So, since GStreamer supports rtsp/rtp (granted that the plugins are available) I see no reason why the WebKitGTK+ media player wouldn't support it as well ;) Philippe On Mon, 2010-01-11 at 12:29 +0100, Hamza Awais wrote: > Hi Philippe > > My task is just to investigate whether Webkit/GTK supports stream-based > playback or not.... i don't really have a stream source that i am trying to > play here.
