An RTSP stream is supported by most media players such as QuickTime and VLC. You can choose from
two RTSP transport protocol options.
l
RTSP (UDP/TCP)
: The client chooses UDP or TCP as the preferred transport protocol. The preferred
option for Pearl Mini is UDP, which is a connectionless transport protocol that does minimal error
checking for less delay when transporting packets. UDP is suitable for use with stable, low-loss
networks.
l
RTSP (TCP)
: Uses TCP as the transport protocol. Use TCP if you're network connection is lossy and
would benefit from the error-checking and packet-loss retransmission that TCP performs.
