RTP/RTSP

RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) is a standard for connected client(s) to control streaming

data (MPEG-4) over the World Wide Web.

RTP (Real-Time Transport Protocol) is an Internet protocol used for transmitting single real-time

multimedia data such as audio and video to a select group of connected clients. RTSP uses RTP

to format packets of multimedia content.
