MediaSuite.NET

Protocols

RTSP.NET
Real-Time Streaming Protocol

  • Is a RFC 2326 compliant RTSP stack.
  • Fully compatible with ALL major streaming servers and devices.
  • Supported RTSP methods 1.0:
    • OPTIONS
    • DESCRIBE
    • SETUP
    • PLAY
    • ANNOUNCE
    • RECORD
    • TEARDOWN
    • SET_PARAMETER
    • GET_PARAMETER
  • RTSP 2.0
    • PLAY_NOTIFY
    • REDIRECT
  • RTSP.NET supports all common message headers, along with generic headers. So you can easily introduce new ones as the standard progresses or use alternative "x-" headers to convey extra information.
  • RTSP.NET contains Helper classes to boost productivity and minimizes redundant work. Through the RTSP Manager, it is very easy to create complex streaming scenarios with just a few lines of code.
  • You can specify and modify all parameters of an RTSP message, i.e.: tweak start/end times, send customized information to the server, etc.
  • Additional Features:
    • Basic & Digest Authentication
    • Manual & Automatic Authentication
    • Automatic response generation from request
    • Support for efficient Request/Response (also bulk, huge non-aggregations) transactions
  • RTSP Server implementations
    • Support for non-hinted tracks
    • RTSP streaming from web cam
    • RTSP streaming from an .mp4 file
    • Extensible framework using IMediaEndpoint interface
    • Support for regular expression evaluation of RTSP URLs
  • Support for alternative content types (other than default SDP)
  • Each RTSP dialog, is handled via a transaction handled through events and callbacks.

SDP.NET
Session Description Protocol

  • Is a RFC 2326 compliant software stack for the Microsoft .NET framework.
  • SDP is used to convey media capabilities between media endpoints. It can be found in protocols such as RTSP and SIP.
  • SDP.NET supports all SDP header types, as well as generic attributes.

Advanced RTP.NET

  • Complete implementation of RFC 3550
    • Additional Encapsulations (H.264, MPEG-4.2, H.263, AAC)
    • Extended Sequence Numbering to provide correctness above 16-bit standard sequences
    • Media synchronization Framework
  • Play-out buffer to receive presentation times from RTCP Sender Report packets and optional RTP-INFO headers.
  • Jitter buffer to handle incoming RTP packets and release them as full frames, ready to be decoded.
  • Presentation buffer for reordering of picture before actual presentation to the screen
  • Secure communication through SRTP with automatic encryption & decryption in RTP participants
