ts streaming over rtp using gstreamer

We have different solutions available for streaming mpeg2ts content over rtp.

• vlc player
• ffmpeg
• gstreamer

gstreamer provides different plugins for rtp solutions. To name a few:

• rtpbin
• rtpmp2tpay
• rtpmp2tdepay
• rtph264pay
• rtph264depay

gstreamer provides lots of configurability with rtp streaming. Here is an example in which, input ts file is streamed realtime to another gstreamer pipeline. On the receiver side the content is written to an output file.

Sender

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=”./in.ts” ! queue ! tsparse set-timestamps=true ! rtpmp2tpay ! .send_rtp_sink_0 rtpbin ! udpsink host=localhost port=3000

Receiver
