  • Page 84 Acquiring Both Video and Audio Bitstreams In case AudioIn is on and a client requests a video stream, the camera simultaneously transmits the video stream and an audio stream in an RTSP session. The following captured packets show an example of simultaneous video bitstream and audio bitstream acquisition from the camera.

    RTP/RTCP RTP Header Fields The RTP header has the following format. Field Bit Length Description Version This field identifies the version of RTP. The version defined by this specification is two (2). Padding If the padding bit is set, the packet contains one or more additional padding octets at the end which are not part of the payload.

  • Page 87: Sr: Sender Report Rtcp Packet

    SR: Sender Report RTCP Packet The RTCP Sender report’s header has the following format. Field Bit Length Description Version Identifies the version of RTP, which is the same in RTCP packets as in RTP data packets. The version defined by this specification is two (2).

  • Page 88: Userdata Information In Video Bitstream

    Userdata Information in Video Bitstream Userdata field (supplemental information) is added to the video bitstream delivered by RTSP streaming function. This chapter describes the data structure of Userdata field this camera supports. Userdata Information Under H.264 Video Codec The data structure of Userdata field where the video codec is set to H.264 is described. The format of the data is like below, when H.264 Userdata is sent from the cameras as RTP Packet.

    Userdata Information Under H.265 Video Codec The data structure of Userdata field where the video codec is set to H.265 is described. The format of the data is like below, when H.265 Userdata is sent from the cameras as RTP Packet. In the format above, the data details except RTP Header is described in the table below.
