I believe it is. The documentation for camera states it sends PAL interlaced encoded using ITU-R BT.601 and ITU-R BT.656, using RFC 4175 RTP packets.
I tried capturing the RTP traffic over the network using Wireshark and examing it.The headers in the RTP look like they do conform to RFC 4175. A sample of the capture is at https://www.dropbox.com/s/l65o879qf2er3qi/camera_5.pcapng?dl=0. > Paul Yurt> > On Sep 26, 2018, at 8:15 AM, villastar at yahoo.com.au <villastar-at-yahoo.com.au at ffmpeg.org> wrote:>> >> Hi, >> >> I am unable to get ffplay to play back a raw uncompressed interlaced>> video from an RTP stream, coming from a camera feed.
