Hi

RTSP doesn’t support SSL to my knowledge.

iOS devices don’t trigger a pause/unpause method (your iOS device’s pause can only last as long as the timeout before your connection is destroyed because its not classed as a pause its just play/stop).

RTSP does not have any secure protection - similar to RTMPE or SSL (for hks) i was read.

Huh for IOS - well thank you I was looking for this

Thank you one more time.
