Ok, I'll give it a try. Haven't tested everything, so there might be some errors. If you want to use mplayer: - cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer && make install clean OR portinstall multimedia/mplayer - make sure livemedia is selected: [X] LIVEMEDIA - mplayer -rtsp-stream-over-tcp rtsp://jello.ironport.com:80/Bsdtest.sdp If you already installed mplayer, but get the following error: "RTSP support requires the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" libraries." - cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mplayer - make config - make sure livemedia is selected: [X] LIVEMEDIA - make deinstall reinstall clean OR portupgrade -f multimedia/mplayer If you want to use vlc: - cd /usr/ports/multimedia/vlc - make install clean OR portinstall multimedia/vlc - make sure faad is selected: [X] FAAD - start vlc - Settings->Preferences -> check "Advanced options" -> go to Input/Codecs->Demuxers->RTP/RTSP and check "Use RTP over RTSP (TCP)" -> Save - File->Open Network Stream, check "RTSP", URL: rtsp://jello.ironport.com:80/Bsdtest.sdp OR $vlc rtsp://jello.ironport.com:80/Bsdtest.sdp If you already installed vlc, but get no sound: - cd /usr/ports/multimedia/vlc - make config - make sure faad is selected: [X] FAAD - make deinstall reinstall clean OR portupgrade -f multimedia/vlc I haven't yet succeeded using xine for the test stream. Notes: - I haven't tested if it works if you disable any of the default options (disabling LIVEMEDA for vlc is probably a bad idea). - I usually use the -R option for portupgrade to be sure that all dependent ports are up-to-date as well.
