Real Time Streaming Protocol

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.

RTSP is the Real Time Streaming Protocol developed by the IETF and published in 1998 as RFC 2326. RTSP is a protocol for use in streaming media systems which allows a client to remotely control a streaming media server, issuing VCR-like commands such as "play" and "pause", and allowing time-based access to files on a server.

RTSP servers typically use RTP as the protocol for the actual audio/video data.
