This function gets called for each $ block and therefore +contains exactly one upper-layer protocol unit (e.g. one RTP packet). Curl +writes the interleaved header as well as the included data for each call. The +first byte is always an ASCII dollar sign. The dollar sign is followed by a +one byte channel identifier and then a 2 byte integer length in network byte +order. See \fIRFC2326 Section 10.12\fP for more information on how RTP +interleaving behaves. If unset or set to NULL, curl will use the default write +function. + +Interleaved RTP poses some challenges for the client application. Since the +stream data is sharing the RTSP control connection, it is critical to service +the RTP in a timely fashion. If the RTP data is not handled quickly, +subsequent response processing may become unreasonably delayed and the +connection may close. The application may use \fICURL_RTSPREQ_RECEIVE\fP to +service RTP data when no requests are desired. If the application makes a +request, (e.g. \fICURL_RTSPREQ_PAUSE\fP) then the response handler will +process any pending RTP data before marking the request as finished. + +The \fICURLOPT_INTERLEAVEDATA(3)\fP is passed in the \fIuserdata\fP argument in +the callback. +.SH DEFAULT +NULL, the interleave data is then passed to the regular write function: +\fICURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION(3)\fP. +.SH PROTOCOLS +RTSP +.SH EXAMPLE +.nf +static size_t rtp_write(void *ptr, size_t size, size_t nmemb, void *user) +{ + struct local *l = (struct local *)user; + /* take care of the packet in 'ptr', then return... */ + return size * nmemb; +} +{ + struct local rtp_data; + curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_INTERLEAVEFUNCTION, rtp_write); + curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_INTERLEAVEDATA, &rtp_data); +} +.fi +.SH AVAILABILITY +Added in 7.20.0 +.SH RETURN VALUE +Returns CURLE_OK if the option is supported, and CURLE_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR CURLOPT_INTERLEAVEDATA "(3), " CURLOPT_RTSP_REQUEST "(3), " |
