After upgrading, I can no longer open a stream to my security camera (rtsp://frontcam2/). This worked fine before the upgrade. I can open mpeg files and audio and video work fine on those.

I turned on debug messages, and I got

main debug: net: connecting to frontcam2 port 554
main debug: connection succeeded (socket = 17)
access_realrtsp warning: Cseq mismatch, got 1, assumed 0
access_realrtsp debug: rtsp connected
access_realrtsp warning: only real/helix rtsp servers supported for now

Try the snap version or build vlc with the --enable-live555 config item. See https://forum.videolan.org/viewtopic.php?t=161400 , the claim was ubuntu stopped supporting rtsp out of the box.

  • The snap version gets the desktop version, but unfortunately it doesn't include cvlc, which I use for saving the last few days of security camera footage. – Paul Tomblin May 26 '23 at 18:11
