Question

how to publish h264 file to the RTSP server?
this is for mp4 file: gst-launch-1.0 rtspclientsink name=s location=rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream filesrc location=file.mp4 ! qtdemux name=d d.video_0 ! queue ! s.sink_0 d.audio_0 ! queue ! s.sink_1

i tried this:
gst-launch-1.0 rtspclientsink location=rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream filesrc location=example.h264 ! video/x-h264 ! h264parse ! avdec_h264 ! videoconvert ! videorate ! video/x-raw,framerate=30/1 ! autovideosink

I get on the client-side:
Setting pipeline to PAUSED ...
Pipeline is PREROLLING ...
Progress: (open) Opening Stream
Progress: (connect) Connecting to rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream
Progress: (open) Retrieving server options
Progress: (open) Opened Stream
Redistribute latency...
Redistribute latency...
Pipeline is PREROLLED ...
Setting pipeline to PLAYING ...
New clock: GstSystemClock
Progress: (request) Sending RECORD request

and on the server-side:
2021/03/14 18:28:05 [I] [1/0/0] [client 127.0.0.1:59354] connected (plain)

what I do wrong?

Hello, the problem is that you're converting h264 frames into raw frames (i.e. you're decoding). You don't want to sent to the server the decoded frames, you want to send it the h264 frames, directly from the file, therefore

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=example.h264 ! video/x-h264 ! h264parse ! rtspclientsink location=rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream

Hi,
thank you, but I got this warning now:

WARNING: erroneous pipeline: could not link rtph264pay0 to rtspclientsink0

yes, my bad, the right pipeline is

gst-launch-1.0 filesrc location=example.h264 ! video/x-h264 ! h264parse ! rtspclientsink location=rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream
