CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI(3) curl_easy_setopt options CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI(3)
NAME
CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI - RTSP stream URI
SYNOPSIS
#include <curl/curl.h>
CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI, char *URI);
DESCRIPTION
Set the stream URI to operate on by passing a char * . For example, a
single session may be controlling rtsp://foo/twister/audio and
rtsp://foo/twister/video and the application can switch to the appro-
priate stream using this option. If unset, libcurl will default to op-
erating on generic server options by passing '*' in the place of the
RTSP Stream URI. This option is distinct from CURLOPT_URL(3). When
working with RTSP, the CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI(3) indicates what URL to
send to the server in the request header while the CURLOPT_URL(3) indi-
cates where to make the connection to. (e.g. the CURLOPT_URL(3) for
the above examples might be set to rtsp://foo/twister
The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
this option.
DEFAULT
'*'
PROTOCOLS
