The Real Time Streaming Protocol, or RTSP, is an application-level

protocol for control over the delivery of data with real-time

properties. RTSP provides an extensible framework to enable

controlled, on-demand delivery of real-time data, such as audio and

video. Sources of data can include both live data feeds and stored

clips. This protocol is intended to control multiple data delivery

sessions, provide a means for choosing delivery channels such as UDP,

multicast UDP and TCP, and provide a means for choosing delivery

mechanisms based upon RTP (RFC 1889).
