Live Stream video using Android with pure java
RTSP means Real Time Streaming Protocol, is a protocol specifically designed for streaming purpose, with RTSP you can control absolute positioning within the media stream, recording and possibly device control etc
- RTSP introduces a number of new methods and has a different
protocol identifier.
- An RTSP server needs to maintain state by default in almost all cases, as opposed to the stateless nature of HTTP.
- Both an RTSP server and client can issue requests.
- Data is carried out-of-band by a different protocol.
If you want to use video streaming you have to use RTSP
See this LINK for more details about the protocol RTSP
NB
To show the video content in Android you can use the VideoView
myVideoView = (VideoView) findViewById(R.id.myview);
myVideoView.setVideoPath("rtsp://SERVER_IP_ADDR:5544/");
myVideoView.setMediaController(new MediaController(this));
