Unable to consistently play RTSP streams across many Android devices

    • Closed Issue created by Mirco @mir.p

    Hello We are working on a Xamarin Forms project which involves playing video streams, among which RTSP streams. We are using LibVLC (as VideoLAN.LibVLC.Android package) in our project and we are facing issues playing RTSP streams on some devices. We have already reported this opening a ticket (LibVLCSharp#226 (closed)) over at https://code.videolan.org/videolan and we have been forwarded over here.

    On some devices, namely Oneplus One and Samsung S5, when opening an RTSP stream such as rtsp://freja.hiof.no:1935/rtplive/definst/hessdalen03.stream the stream won't play and it outputs:

    [VLC] [a92d9430/7a41] libvlc demux: Nothing to play for rtsp://freja.hiof.no:1935/rtplive/_definst_/hessdalen03.stream
[VLC] [92893ab0/7a41] libvlc stream: Failed to setup RTSP session
[VLC] [92893ab0/7a41] libvlc stream: read error: Protocol not available
[VLC] [92893ab0/7a41] libvlc stream: Failed to teardown RTSP session
[VLC] [9570d030/7a41] libvlc input: Your input can't be opened
[VLC] [9570d030/7a41] libvlc input: VLC is unable to open the MRL 'rtsp://freja.hiof.no:1935/rtplive/_definst_/hessdalen03.stream'. Check the log for details.

    (please refer to the ticket over code.videolan for more verbose logs)

    We are trying to play RTSP video streams from ONVIF Cameras with the same results.

    Please find attached an up-to-date sample project. Xamarin.Forms v4.3.0.991211 LibVLCSharp(.Forms) v3.3.1 VideoLAN.LibVLC.Android v3.2.0

    To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information

      Either the RTSP plugin is missing or the logs are not shown.

      Forgot to reopen after attaching logs (previous comment).

      Error seems to be in lines

      11-25 15:53:32.308 W/VLC     ( 8819): [99d8a4d0/3a6b] libvlc demux: RTP subsession 'audio/MPEG4-GENERIC' failed (getsockname() error: Bad file descriptor)

      Though based on the LibVLC.Android version and on the specific device, the issue may disappear.

      LibVLC.Android 3.0.0 (based on VLC media player - 3.0.0 Vetinari) seems to be working alright. The most recent version 3.2.0 (based on VLC media player - 3.0.9 Vetinari) it only gets to work some devices.

      Looks like buggy live555 version in contribs.

      I think I may have some clues about the specific issue. What I found is that the RTSP video can't be played by the Live555 contrib plugin because

      libvlc demux: RTP subsession 'audio/MPEG4-GENERIC' failed (getsockname() error: Bad file descriptor)

      but it is actually failing in setting up the datagram socket. In fact, the real error behind the "Bad file descriptor" is

      setsockopt(SO_REUSEPORT) error: Protocol not available

      VLC is currently using Live555 sources from 2016.11.28 (if I am not mistaken). If you open the source file GroupsockHelper.cpp you may spot the culprit there. Line 123:

      #ifdef SO_REUSEPORT
  if (setsockopt(newSocket, SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEPORT,
		 (const char*)&reuseFlag, sizeof reuseFlag) < 0) {
    socketErr(env, "setsockopt(SO_REUSEPORT) error: ");
    closeSocket(newSocket);
    return -1;
  }
#endif

      This region of code seems to be included in the compiling process. If I comment that out and rebuild the library I can finally play the RTSP streams. The problem, I guess, must be related to the Linux kernel version of the specific devices! SO_REUSEPORT was introduced as of kernel version 3.9-rc1 (see https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/backports/stable/v3.9-rc1/ChangeLog-3.9-rc1-3)

          19) Support SO_REUSEPORT, from Tom Herbert.

      early than that version and you cannot set up a socket in SO_REUSEPORT mode. In fact, both the S5 and the Oneplus have lower kernel versions. I can spot the #define SO_REUSEPORT in the arch-specific socket.h files such as

      vlc/build-android-arm-linux-androideabi/ndk/toolchains/sysroot/usr/include/asm-generic/socket.h

      However, I am currently not entirely sure how this issue was not present back in VideoLAN.LibVLC.Android v3.0.0 and how it was introduced in recent releases (VideoLAN.LibVLC.Android v3.2.0). It makes no sense to me because the Live555 plugin was already there, same version... has it anything to do with the defines perhaps? Or am I completely mistaken?

      Hope this helps.

      Patch that removes the call that causes the RTSP play to fail

      Added attachment:

      KurtHuwig @KurtHuwig ·

      I have compiled live555 with the option mentioned on the live555 mailinglist. But this did not work: there was still an error message. If I read it correctly, the call is still performed, but with ICMP instead of UDP, so I don't see why it should work at all.

      I have attached a patch that removes the bad call and now it works on a Samsung S5 mini.

      Fun fact: now the phone crashes and does a hard reboot, but I assume that is nothing we can change.

      Great thank you for your contrib!

      BTW, I have my own LibVLC copy with this patch applied. I had no reply in the end so I was not able to make an "official" patch.

      LibVLC seems to work without crashing on my devices.

      KurtHuwig @KurtHuwig ·

      IMHO checking if the call is supported before the call is the right solution. On the other hand: why don't we use the __ANDROID__ #define? I also saw that the #ifdef __ANDROID__ is removed in a patch we apply to VLC. This looks strange.

      Something else: I have quite a bunch of crash reports in native code on Android. Are they of any use? They are from the Google Play store, so nothing that I can recreate.

      I am far, very far, from being an expert of LibVLC and the Live555 module, though I thought that checking if the REUSE option was available (then use it) was optimal rather than just avoiding the REUSE option altogether for an ANDROID build. Anyway I could not find such __ANDROID__ define. If it is still being used then great, we can use that for our patch. We are on the right track!

      What does the log say? Should you open a new ticket?

      Look at

      vlc-android/vlc/contrib/src/live555/in_addr-s_addr-field.patch

      There you see that the lines with

      #ifdef __ANDROID__

      are removed.

      live555 uses SO_REUSEPORT for the BSD semantics, i.e., bind multiple sockets to the same UDP port to each receive multicast packets. Unfortunately, SO_REUSEPORT on Linux means something else altogether (load balancing), and live555 using it is plain wrong. FWIW, VLC core has the exact same bug.

      The failure with older kernels, notably on Android, is just a red herring.

      The root cause of the problem is Linux/netdev brain-damagedly defining a socket option with the same name but different meaning as BSD, but that ship has sailed.
