Publish via RTSP Pull (CCTV)

This section, which includes this guide, describes the features of OvenMediaEngine Enterprise available for subscription on AWS Marketplace.

If you need to convert your RTSP-based videos, such as CCTV, IP camera, etc., into real-time streams in your service, you can use the RTSP Pull feature in OvenMediaEngine Enterprise on AWS.

With this approach, OvenMediaEngine connects directly to an external RTSP (media source) and pulls the video (pulling), allowing you to build a streaming environment easily without any additional streaming tools.

Item	Supported
Container	RTP
Transport	UDP / TCP

Start Publishing an RTSP Pull Stream

1

Create an RTSP Pull Stream and enter information

1. Stream List on the Web Console (main page), click [+] in the upper-right corner, then select [Add RTSP pull stream] from the dropdown menu.

1. Enter a [Stream Name] that is easy to identify, and the [RTSP URL] to connect to.

A typical RTSP URL format is rtsp://{ID}:{Password}@{IP}:{Port}/path, but formats may vary by product. Please check the RTSP URL format recommended by your vendor.

Ensuring stability with Advanced Settings (Optional)

• You can additionally use [Advanced Settings] to configure streaming behavior optimized for your network environment.

If you are using RTSP Pull Streams for the first time, we recommend creating the stream using the default system settings. If further optimization is needed for your environment later, update the stream after adjusting the relevant options.

Value	Input Range	Description
Create persistent stream	Yes | No Default: No	Keeps the stream persistent If set to Yes, the stream will not be deleted automatically after creation and will remain until an explicit Delete request is made.
No input failover timeout (ms)	0~ Default: 3000	If no media source is received as input (ingress) for the specified period (milliseconds), the stream is deleted. This rule is ignored if Create persistent stream is set to Yes.
Unused streams deletion timeout (ms)	0~ Default: 60000	If there is no output (egress) for the specified period (milliseconds), the stream is deleted. This rule is ignored if Create persistent stream is set to Yes.
Ignore RTCP SR timestamp	Yes | No Default: No	Selects whether to wait for RTCP SR (Sender Report), which includes timestamp information. If set to Yes, the stream starts immediately without waiting for RTCP SR, so the first video appears faster. However, stability may vary depending on any device.
