How to force rtsp streaming using TCP mode?

[Tuzr]

In the earlier version, we can use setAvOption( ) like below:
ijkMediaPlayer.setAvOption("rtsp_transport", "tcp");

But, the newer version didn't provide this function.
I had try
ijkMediaPlayer.setOption(IjkMediaPlayer.OPT_CATEGORY_PLAYER, "rtsp_transport", "tcp");
and
ijkMediaPlayer.setOption(IjkMediaPlayer.OPT_CATEGORY_FORMAT, "rtsp_transport", "tcp");

It doesn't work for me. Could someone tell me how to solve it ?

Any advice is appreciated, Thanks.

Actually, rtsp is disabled by default in later version. You need to enable it manually, see README.

@bbcallen
Thanks, I know that.
At first, I use the "module-default.sh" to init.
And I use the ijkplayer-example project to play rtsp streaming on my Android device. It works.
But I had some parameters those have to set in the earlier version, like "rtsp_transport" in TCP mode.

Sorry, no idea. I'm not familiar with rtsp.
You can add some log in libavformat/rtsp.c to see if options are passed down correctly.

@bbcallen

@Tuzr
hello, have u solved this problem?

[Tuzr]

@huanglongyu
Finally, I solve it by below
ijkMediaPlayer.setOption(IjkMediaPlayer.OPT_CATEGORY_FORMAT, "rtsp_transport", "tcp");
You can see it use tcp mode on log.

@Tuzr
I used tcp mode, it does not work. It almost 1-2s delay , same as before
In ur first comment u said that did not work either, is there some othre option u setted?
and may I know the delay in ur project now?

@huanglongyu
At first,I had some problem but it's not the same as tcp, anyway it's a misunderstanding.
Finally I use this option, and see the log with TCP mode.
I use it to play a webcam streaming, the delay is also about 1~2 sec, maybe even more.

@Tuzr

@Tuzr @bbcallen @Tuzr I need to use the rtsp streaming using TCP. I have a video stored on the server and one server code running on the server machine. Can you tell me how to use ijkplayer so that it would fetch the video accordingly and display it on the phone after decoding and making it as frame_texture?
I just want to know how to use the rtsp streaming using TCP

I've not update for several years,
as I mentioned at 2016 like below, it was success at that time.
ijkMediaPlayer.setOption(IjkMediaPlayer.OPT_CATEGORY_FORMAT, "rtsp_transport", "tcp");
