# RTSP Example This example shows the use of the `espp::RtspServer` and `espp::RtspClient` classes provided by the `rtsp` component for performing streaming of JPEG images (`espp::JpegFrame`) using the `MJPEG` format over the Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) / Real Time Protocol (RTP) packets. For more complete example use, see the [camera-streamer](https://github.com/esp-cpp/camera-streamer) and [camera-display](https://github.com/esp-cpp/camera-display) repositories. ## How to use example ### Hardware Required This example is designed to be run on an M5Stack ESP32 Timer Cam module (server) or a ESP32-S3-Box (client). ### Configure the project ``` idf.py menuconfig ``` You need to configure the `WiFi` network in the `RTSP Example Configuration` menuconfig and you can optionally configure the `RTSP Server Port` (default 8554). ### Build and Flash NOTE: this example is designed to be modified into client only or server-only operation depending on the hardware it is deployed to. Build the project and flash it to the board, then run monitor tool to view serial output: ``` idf.py -p PORT flash monitor ``` (Replace PORT with the name of the serial port to use.) (To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.) See the Getting Started Guide for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects. ## Example Output Example showing the server (camera), the client (handheld display), and the python client, with both clients connected simultaneously: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/213467/236601258-c334e1ba-5e18-4452-b48d-e792ec2ed4fb.mp4 Screenshot showing the server running for a very long time (all day, see timestamp in log > 33,000 seconds):  Screenshot showing the received framerate on the camera-display: <img width="638" alt="CleanShot 2023-05-06 at 10 27 21@2x" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/213467/236633241-a2aba704-e10f-4855-b07b-766a8f8d8658.png"> Screenshot of main code for camera-streamer output: <img width="799" alt="CleanShot 2023-05-06 at 10 29 31@2x" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/213467/236633321-abdd2551-0a53-4be2-b90e-a693dfa89c12.png">
