Video files shared from your device to the main display by a native media player such as
QuickTime and/or Windows Media Player may experience lower frame rates, inconsistent
playback, and increased latency, depending on your laptop system’s performance.
RTSP Streaming Through VLC
The Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) is a network control protocol designed for use in
entertainment and communications systems to control streaming media servers. The protocol
establishes and controls media sessions between end points. Clients of media servers issue
commands like play and pause, to facilitate real-time control of playback of media files from
the server.
VIA Connect² supports RTSP. Media played locally on a computer can be streamed on VIA
Connect², provided the computer and VIA Connect² are on connected networks.
To Configure RTSP Streaming using VLC Media Player:
1. Open VLC Media Player on your device.
