Original commit message from CVS: A TCP plugin could be needed by many, including wtay himself cause he is sitting behind a firewall blocking UDP and he can't hear or see me. :) Shamefully most of the code is from udpsrc/sink. Still timestamping/clock does'nt work. :(

* What is TCP src/sink?
|
|
|
|
solution, like icecast or realaudio or whatever. But the future RTP plugins shall not do the actual transmission/reception of packets on the network themselve but the Application developer would be encouraged to use either the TCP or the UDP plugins for that. UDP would be used mostly but there could be situations where TCP would be the only available choice. For example streaming accross firewalls that do not allow UDP.

* Shortcomings
|
|
|
|
Even given our modest ambitions, the current code doesn't handle
|
|
caps negotiation robustly.
|
|
|
|
* Todo
|
|
|
|
The caps nego should do bi-directional negotiation.
|
|
|
|
Perhaps this plugin can be the example of how to do caps negotiation
|
|
via a point-to-point protocol.
