RTP tools change history

1.11 (January 1999)

Marc Eaddy found that MSVC++ 5.0 only works if seq is declared unsigned int seq:16.
Additional Linux fixes by Petter Reinholdtsen
Windows NT/Win32 port by Xiaotao Wu (Columbia University).

1.10 (March 1998)

Bill Fenner: "I've been experimenting with real short clips, and discovered that rtpplay exited as soon as it read the last packet instead of letting the playout happen, cutting off READAHEAD packets (which in most cases was the whole file). Here are my fixes. Note that I had to (somewhat kludgily) schedule another timeout, since the notify system doesn't notice a notify_stop() request which is set from a timeout until there's another event." [hgs: Notify was changed to drop out when there are no pending timers and no open file descriptors.]
Jonathan Lennox created multidump and multiplay.
Catch additional signals.
rtpplay: Add -b and -e flags for playing back only a selected portion of the file.
rtpplay: The first RTP packet is now timed correctly with respect to the preceding RTCP packet.

1.9 (August 1997)

rtptrans also has non-sendmsg ifdef for Linux and similarly socket-challenged systems (by Lutz Grueneberg)
Port to FreeBSD (by Jonathan Lennox):
- Added necessary architecture Makefile.
- Extracted hsearch code from GNU libc 2.0.4 for rtpplay.
- Massive byte-ordering cleanup (behavior under FreeBSD and Solaris should be identical).
- Minor other changes for BSD 4.4 sockets.
rtpdump -f file now shows a "from" address of 0.0.0.0:0.
Updated rtpdump, rtpplay's payload type maps to reflect current IANA numbers.

1.8 (July 1997)

1.6 (October 1996)

Format flag on rtpdump changed from -f to -F for consistency.
Added ability to use RTP timestamps rather than received timing for rtpplay, making it more useful for recording.
rtpdump can read from files.
-x flag supported for dump format so that only RTP/RTCP and media headers are logged.
Fixed: random address information in header.

1.0 (December 1995)

First independent release of rtptools.
Added rtptools/rtpsend to generate arbitrary RTP packets based on text file. Intended as a debugging and torture/compliance test tool. rtpsend reads files produced by rtpdump (ASCII mode). For replaying recordings, use rtpplay. Only supports RTP data and SDES RTCP packets right now.
