Hi All

I’ve set up a RTSP application which works over the standard 554 port.

However - load time of the stream takes forever 10-15 seconds when playing in VLC. The stream is started in stream manager and plays straight away when requesting over RTMP.

I recognize this could be UDP protocol issues as per the old school days 😉 but do you have any further suggestions as to how I could speed it up a little.

Also, I know the player controls the protocol for UDP or TCP, do you know which of the 2 android and symbian request?

Thanks 🙂

RTMP and RTSP are usually comparable start times in my experience. Do you something to test? You can send to support@wowza.com. Include a link to this thread.

What encoder are you using, settings?

I have same problem here … We had talked here on forum about it more times … But problem is still here … But if Richard is opening my stream in VLC , then its start instantly … Its crazy , because Richard is on other side of Earth , and im on same segment with wowza …

I have found Android startup to be slow. It is mostly a player issue. Startup maybe faster if you setup the encoder to send key frames more often.

It sure sounds like the case. BTW, an alternative to RTSP/RTP streaming to Android is Flash streaming. It is probably a much more reliable and robust option.

It is most likely a UDP routing problem. It is probablly trying RTSP/RTP over UDP first. That is failing so it if failing over the RTSP/RTP over TCP. This is succeeding. Open the debug window in VLC and you should see it make two connection attempts. One over UDP and the second interleaved (over TCP).

Hi,

I have a similar problem. The RTSP streams in VLC open in under 5 seconds which is OK, but on Android it takes them ~ 15 seconds.

What could be the reason for this? The log from Wowza when using Android is below (I’ve removed server IP):

Keyframe interval is 2000ms, so I dont want to reduce it even further.

I’ve tried alternative Android player and it loads in the same time as VLC.

We can say that this problem is due to the built-in player.

With VLC it works fine, but only in native Android player it works quite slow. Any other suggestions?

You want to open the UDP ports, or set Application.xml /MediaCaster forceInterleaved Property to “true”

```auto
<Property>
    <Name>forceInterleaved</Name>
    <Value>true</Value>
    <Type>Boolean</Type>
</Property>

```

Not that I know.

Flash HTTP will probably be faster if it is Android 2.2 with Flash 10.1+

I understand that it could be a routing problem. But closing the UDP ports doesn’t seem to make a difference.
