Detailed Description

template<typename TcpClient, typename UdpSocket>
class audio_tools::RTSPClient< TcpClient, UdpSocket >

Efficient RTSP client for UDP/RTP audio with decoder pipeline.

Establishes an RTSP session (OPTIONS, DESCRIBE, SETUP/UDP, PLAY), binds a local UDP RTP port and receives RTP audio packets. The payload of each RTP packet is forwarded to an internal MultiDecoder. For raw PCM over RTP (e.g. L16) a DecoderNetworkFormat is used to convert network byte order into host format before writing to the configured output. For compressed formats, register decoders with addDecoder().

Usage:

Construct and set an output via setOutput()
Call begin(address, port)
In your loop, call copy() to push RTP payloads to decoders
Optionally control streaming via setActive(true/false)
Optionally define resampling factor to prevent buffer over/underflows

Template parameters:

TcpClient: TCP client type (e.g: WiFiClient)
UdpSocket: UDP socket type (e.g: WiFiUDP)

Implements AudioInfoSupport.

◆ setResampleFactor()

template<typename TcpClient , typename UdpSocket >

void setResampleFactor ( float factor )
