Setup

G-Scope Connection

When switched off, no connection is established to the G-Core server. Can only be used if the VSC is used.

The address of the G-Core Server that supplies the source channels of the G-Core RTSP Server

The G-Core user account that the G-Core RTSP Server uses. The access password used by the G-Core RTSP Server can be changed via "Password"

See Options (licensing) below

RTCP

The parameter allows you to enable/disable the RTCP communication. If a client does not support RTCP, RTCP should be disabled. Otherwise, there is a session timeout due to missing RTCP client report messages and the image transmission is stopped.

When the RTCP is active, the G-Core RTSP Server stops the image transmission if no RTCP client report has been received within the time set here.

The parameter controls how often the G-Core RTSP Server generates RTCP sender reports and sends them to the client.

Advanced Settings

This prefix is ​​used for channels for which no explicit mapping of G-Core channel numbers to RTSP channel numbers is specified.

A client can address a G-Core channel as follows:
rtsp://IPAddress:RtspPort/URLPrefix/GcoreChannelNumber

This is the port to which RTSP clients must connect. The default value is 8554.

An RTSP URL for access to a channel is composed as follows:
rtsp://IPAddress:RtspPort/URLPrefix/GcoreChannelNumber

The G-Core RTSP Server automatically calculates the used codec of a G-Core live channel by querying images at startup (JPEG, MPEG, H264).

For channels with a low frame rate, the G-Core RTSP Server may not receive information on the codec within the sample codec timeout time. The query for the codec is then tried again during the subsequent streaming.

The parameter increases the wait time for determining the codecs of the individual channels.

Channels for which the codec cannot be determined (for example, image failure) delay starting the G-Core RTSP Server accordingly.

For transmission errors and very large images in the live streams, this value can be increased as necessary. Normally, however, no adjustment should be necessary here.

Refer to the UDP send buffer size

The parameter allows you to change the check time. The G-Core RTSP Server cyclically checks the state of certain resources – such as the status of the connection to the G-Core RTSP Server.

The greater the number of RTSP clients that request a stream from the RTSP server, the higher the bandwidth in the G-Core RTSP Server.

If the load is high, the G-Core RTSP Server cannot send an image.

This parameter specifies the number of times an image is to be retransmitted before it is finally discarded.

Before resending an image (Resend x Times), a certain amount of time (in milliseconds) is waited so that the computer has more resources at its disposal.

Channel Mappings

If inactive, the explicit mappings of the Channel Mappings table are ignored and the link between the G-Core channel number and the RTSP name is made via the implicit specifications (see URL prefix).

The table records the explicit specifications that assign a RTSP name to a G-Core channel (global media channel number).

If no explicit mapping is specified for a G-Core channel, the names are defined by the implicit rules.

VSC Virtual Stream Container

The availability of the test streams of GCoreRtspVsc.dll can be controlled by this parameter. If VSC is inactive, all simulated streams are inactive. This does not affect the error stream.
