NAME

       CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI - RTSP stream URI

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI, char *URI);

DESCRIPTION

       Set  the  stream URI to operate on by passing a char * . For example, a single session may be controlling
       rtsp://foo/twister/audio and rtsp://foo/twister/video and the application can switch to  the  appropriate
       stream  using  this  option.  If  unset,  libcurl  will default to operating on generic server options by
       passing '*' in the place of the RTSP Stream URI.  This  option  is  distinct  from  CURLOPT_URL(3).  When
       working with RTSP, the CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI(3) indicates what URL to send to the server in the request
       header  while the CURLOPT_URL(3) indicates where to make the connection to.  (e.g. the CURLOPT_URL(3) for
       the above examples might be set to rtsp://foo/twister

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting this option.

DEFAULT

       '*'

PROTOCOLS

         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI,
                          "rtsp://foo.example.com/twister/video");
         ret = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
