#7260 new defect

Fail to get image dimension when RTSP falling back from UDP to TCP

Description

Summary of the bug:
When I try to record video from a RTSP/H.265 camera that does only RTSP over TCP, it fails getting dimensions although it works fine if I force RTSP/TCP in the command line (-rtsp_transport tcp).

How to reproduce:

% ./ffmpeg/ffmpeg -analyzeduration 10000000 -probesize 10000000 -i rtsp://admin:admin@192.168.51.175:80/0 -c copy -map 0:v -f segment -segment_time 600 "%03d.mp4"

Keywords: rtsp added

Why do you believe there is an issue that can be fixed in FFmpeg? Changing the protocol automatically works for many rtsp sources, do you know that it is supposed to work for your camera?

I would answer why do you believe it is not an issue in FFmpeg ?

It works when I ask FFmpeg to use RTSP/TCP in the first place but not when FFmpeg tries first doing RTSP/UDP and then fallback to RTSP/TCP. IMO, the issue seems to come from a bad behavior when rtsp module is switching from UDP to TCP.

I neither wrote nor meant this.

Replying to julien23:

The reason is there in your log: 455 repsonse

[rtsp @ 0x56423d973680] UDP timeout, retrying with TCP
[rtsp @ 0x56423d973680] method PAUSE failed: 455 Method Not Valid In This State

When UDP timeout and ffmpeg sends PAUSE request to the camera, the camera gives 455 back.
I guess the camera simply does not allow that ? Do you have more detailed logs?
