+.TH GNURLOPT_RTSP_REQUEST 3 "19 Jun 2014" "libcurl 7.37.0" "curl_easy_setopt options"
+.SH NAME
+CURLOPT_RTSP_REQUEST \- specify RTSP request
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+#include <gnurl/curl.h>
+
+CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RTSP_REQUEST, long request);
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+Tell libcurl what kind of RTSP request to make. Pass one of the following RTSP
+enum values as a long in the \fIrequest\fP argument. Unless noted otherwise,
+commands require the Session ID to be initialized.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_OPTIONS
+Used to retrieve the available methods of the server. The application is
+responsible for parsing and obeying the response. The session ID is not needed
+for this method.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_DESCRIBE
+Used to get the low level description of a stream. The application should note
+what formats it understands in the \fI'Accept:'\fP header. Unless set
+manually, libcurl will automatically fill in \fI'Accept: application/sdp'\fP.
+Time-condition headers will be added to Describe requests if the
+\fICURLOPT_TIMECONDITION(3)\fP option is active. \fB(The session ID is not
+needed for this method)\fP
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_ANNOUNCE
+When sent by a client, this method changes the description of the session. For
+example, if a client is using the server to record a meeting, the client can
+use Announce to inform the server of all the meta-information about the
+session. ANNOUNCE acts like an HTTP PUT or POST just like
+\fICURL_RTSPREQ_SET_PARAMETER\fP
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_SETUP
+Setup is used to initialize the transport layer for the session. The
+application must set the desired Transport options for a session by using the
+\fICURLOPT_RTSP_TRANSPORT(3)\fP option prior to calling setup. If no session
+ID is currently set with \fICURLOPT_RTSP_SESSION_ID(3)\fP, libcurl will
+extract and use the session ID in the response to this request. The session ID
+is not needed for this method.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_PLAY
+Send a Play command to the server. Use the \fICURLOPT_RANGE(3)\fP option to
+modify the playback time (e.g. 'npt=10-15').
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_PAUSE
+Send a Pause command to the server. Use the \fICURLOPT_RANGE(3)\fP option with
+a single value to indicate when the stream should be halted. (e.g. npt='25')
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_TEARDOWN
+This command terminates an RTSP session. Simply closing a connection does not
+terminate the RTSP session since it is valid to control an RTSP session over
+different connections.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_GET_PARAMETER
+Retrieve a parameter from the server. By default, libcurl will automatically
+include a \fIContent-Type: text/parameters\fP header on all non-empty requests
+unless a custom one is set. GET_PARAMETER acts just like an HTTP PUT or POST
+(see \fICURL_RTSPREQ_SET_PARAMETER\fP).
+Applications wishing to send a heartbeat message (e.g. in the presence of a
+server-specified timeout) should send use an empty GET_PARAMETER request.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_SET_PARAMETER
+Set a parameter on the server. By default, libcurl will automatically include
+a \fIContent-Type: text/parameters\fP header unless a custom one is set. The
+interaction with SET_PARAMETER is much like an HTTP PUT or POST. An application
+may either use \fICURLOPT_UPLOAD(3)\fP with \fICURLOPT_READDATA(3)\fP like a
+HTTP PUT, or it may use \fICURLOPT_POSTFIELDS(3)\fP like an HTTP POST. No
+chunked transfers are allowed, so the application must set the
+\fICURLOPT_INFILESIZE(3)\fP in the former and \fICURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE(3)\fP
+in the latter. Also, there is no use of multi-part POSTs within RTSP.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_RECORD
+Used to tell the server to record a session. Use the \fICURLOPT_RANGE(3)\fP
+option to modify the record time.
+.IP CURL_RTSPREQ_RECEIVE
+This is a special request because it does not send any data to the server. The
+application may call this function in order to receive interleaved RTP
+data. It will return after processing one read buffer of data in order to give
+the application a chance to run.
