Finding server port In RTSP server base on RTP with UDP transport

Hi Guys,
I want to find out Server port is RTSP server with Gstreamer when UDP is selected as Transport. This my source code it just shows Client port not server port(server port is shown = -1).

#include <gst/gst.h>
#include <gst/rtsp-server/rtsp-server.h>
#include <stdio.h>

    pool = gst_rtsp_server_get_session_pool(server);
    gst_rtsp_session_pool_cleanup(pool);
    g_object_unref(pool);

    return TRUE;
}

    GstRTSPContext *ctx;
    ctx = gst_rtsp_context_get_current();

So which signal has information about the server port? A server port is selected in RTSP protocol when a setup request from client to server is established and server responses to client (here server port is selected).
“play-request” does not have transport information “play-request”
“pre-setup request” makes the server stop working “pre-setup-request”
“setup request” shows server port -1 “pre-setup-request”
“get-parameter-request” does not have information about the transport layer.
“set-parameter-request” does not have information about the transport layer.
“handle-response” signal hasn’t been called .why?
“send-message” signal is called multiple times just one time it shows server port -1
“options-request” signal does not have information about the transport layer.
The “new-session” signal does not have information about the transport layer.
Even a “teardown-request” signal does not have information about the transport layer.
Even a “closed” signal does not have information about the transport layer.(even doesn’t have RTSP context)
This is my client pipeline.

gst-launch-1.0 rtspsrc   location=rtsp://30.42.0.2:8554/test  ! rtph264depay  ! h264parse ! decodebin ! videoconvert  !  autovideosink  -v -e

Thanks so much.

Hi,
We would suggest run RTSP server through test-launch. Please refer to

Jetson AGX Orin FAQ
Q: Is there any example of running RTSP streaming?

The default port is 8554 and there is an option to configure it in test-launch.

And the port is set in RTSP URL, such as rtsp://30.42.0.2:8554/test

If you launch the server with different port number, please modify the URL accordingly.

Thanks for your attention.

No RTSP server port that default value is 8554.

I mean when RTSP server transport layer is set to udp in this situation RTSP doesn’t work with tcp and rtp is used. At first the client selects an udp port and in response the server selects a udp port in the setup phase of the RTSP server. I need to find out the server selected udp port for RTP when rtsp server is in udp transport config. I even found an udp client port but the server port is -1. I want to know about udp server port.

Thanks so much.

Hi,
We don’t know about this. Would see if other users can share experience.
