One, RTMP, RTSP, HTTP protocolThese three protocols belong to the Application layer protocol in the Internet TCP/IP five layer architecture. Theoretically these three kinds can be used for video broadcast or on-demand. But usually, live broadcast with RTMP, RTSP. And on-demand with HTTP. The following are the characteristics of the following three respectively. The 1,RTMP Protocol (1) is a streaming media protocol. (2) The RTMP agreement is Adobe's private agreement and is not fully disclosed. (3) The RTMP protocol generally transmits the FLV,F4V format stream. (4) Rtmp typically transmits commands and data over a TCP 1 channel. The 2,RTSP Protocol (1) is a streaming media protocol. (2) The RTSP agreement is a mutual agreement, and there are specialized agencies to do maintenance. (3) The RTSP protocol generally transmits TS, MP4 format streams. (4) RTSP transmission generally requires 2-3 channels, command and data channel separation. The 3,http Protocol (1) is not a streaming media protocol.
(2) The HTTP protocol is a mutual agreement and has specialized agencies to do maintenance.
(3) The HTTP protocol does not have a specific transport stream. (4) HTTP transmission generally requires 2-3 channels, command and data channel separation.
Second, the available live stream address
Usually when we do RTMP/RTSP development, we can build our own video server for testing. You can also directly use some of the TV station's live address, save time and effort.
Here are some of the video live addresses that I collected aggregated, pro-test available. 1,rtmp Agreement Live source Hong Kong satellite TV: RTMP://LIVE.HKSTV.HK.LXDNS.COM/LIVE/HKS 2,RTSP Agreement live source Zhuhai over Macau Hall camera monitoring: Rtsp://218.204.223.237:554/live /1/66251FC11353191F/E7OOQWCFBQJOO80J.SDP Big Bear Rabbit (On Demand): Rtsp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4://bigbuckbunny_175k.mov 3,http protocol Live source Hong Kong satellite TV: Http://live.hkstv.hk.lxdns.com/live/hks/playlist.m3u8CCTV1 HD: http://ivi.bupt.edu.cn/hls/ CCTV1HD.M3U8CCTV3 HD: http://ivi.bupt.edu.cn/hls/cctv3hd.m3u8CCTV5 HD: http://ivi.bupt.edu.cn/hls/ cctv5hd.m3u8cctv5+ HD: http://ivi.bupt.edu.cn/hls/cctv5phd.m3u8CCTV6 HD: http://ivi.bupt.edu.cn/hls/ Cctv6hd.m3u8 Apple offers test feeds (on demand): Http://devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net/streaming/examples/bipbop_4x3/gear2/prog_ Index.m3u8
Third, playback software recommendation: VLC
To play a live video stream, or to test whether a live video address is available. VLC Media Player is recommended here. Powerful and cross-platform. Support for Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Android, IOS. Website address: http://www.videolan.org/
Open the player and select "Media", "open network streaming ..." in the menu. Enter the video address in the pop-up page.
