https://github.com/scottlamb/moonfire-nvr/issues/192#issuecomment-1025396306 RFC 2326 section 12.39 says if this is omitted, it defaults to multicast. Retina doesn't support multicast, so explicitly say unicast. This was already done correctly for TCP but not for UDP. |

retina
High-level RTSP multimedia streaming library, in Rust. Good support for ONVIF RTSP/1.0 IP surveillance cameras, as needed by Moonfire NVR. Works around brokenness in cheap closed-source cameras.
Status: In production use in Moonfire NVR. Many missing features. Some breaking changes needed to clean up APIs (see #47.)
Progress:
- client support
- basic authentication.
- digest authentication.
- RTP over TCP via RTSP interleaved channels.
- RTP over UDP (experimental).
-
- re-order buffer. (Out-of-order packets are dropped now.)
- RTSP/1.0.
- RTSP/2.0.
- SRTP.
- ONVIF backchannel support (for sending audio).
- ONVIF replay mode.
- receiving RTCP Sender Reports (currently only uses the timestamp)
- sending RTCP Receiver Reports
- server support
- I/O modes
- async with tokio
- async-std
- synchronous with std only
- codec depacketization
- clean, stable API. (See #47.)
- quality errors
-
- detailed error description text.
-
- programmatically inspectable error type.
- good functional testing coverage. (Currently lightly / unevenly tested. Most depacketizers have no tests.)
- fuzz testing. (In progress.)
- benchmark
Help welcome!
Getting started
Try the mp4
example. It streams from an RTSP server to a .mp4
file until
you hit ctrl-C.
$ cargo run --example client mp4 --url rtsp://ip.address.goes.here/ --username admin --password test out.mp4
...
^C
Example client
$ cargo run --example client <CMD>
Where CMD:
- info - Get info about available streams and exit
- mp4 - Write RTSP streams to mp4 file, exit with Ctrl+C
- metadata - Get realtime onvif metadata if available, exit with Ctrl+C

Why "retina"?
It's a working name. Other ideas welcome. I started by looking at dictionary words with the letters R, T, S, and P in order and picking out ones related to video:
$ egrep '^r.*t.*s.*p' /usr/share/dict/words' |
|
---|---|
retinoscope | close but too long, thus retina |
retrospect | good name for an NVR, but I already picked Moonfire |
rotascope | misspelling of "rotascope" (animation tool) or archaic name for "gyroscope"? |
