The -rtsp-* switches didn't seem relevant. Turns out they aren't available at all unless mplayer is built with liveMedia. So I recompiled the mplayer port with option LIVEMEDIA. And presto, mplayer -rtsp-stream-over-tcp (to cope with NAT) now *plays* the stream just fine. However, -dumpstream errors out: Cannot dump this stream - no file descriptor available. > tinker with various knobs.

Hmm, "openRTSP -f 25 -w 688 -h 384 -4 -d 30 -t " now captures something that mplayer can sort of play. Tons of errors, though. Oh well. I'll pass for now and maybe revisit this topic in a year. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber naddy@mips.inka.de
