NAME

CURLOPT_RTSP_TRANSPORT - RTSP Transport: header

SYNOPSIS

#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RTSP_TRANSPORT,


                          char *transport);

DESCRIPTION

Pass a char pointer to tell libcurl what to pass for the Transport: header for this RTSP session. This is mainly a convenience method to avoid needing to set a custom Transport: header for every SETUP request. The application must set a Transport: header before issuing a SETUP request.

The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

NULL

PROTOCOLS

This functionality affects rtsp only

EXAMPLE

int main(void)
{


  CURL *curl = curl_easy_init();


  if(curl) {


    CURLcode res;


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "rtsp://example.com/");


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RTSP_REQUEST, CURL_RTSPREQ_SETUP);


    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RTSP_TRANSPORT,


                     "RTP/AVP;unicast;client_port=4588-4589");


    res = curl_easy_perform(curl);


    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);


  }
}
