OVIES
One simple method to deliver RTSP linkage information to a Quicktime player is through construction of a special
type of movie called an “RTSP Movie”. With a simple ASCII text editor, create a file “my-rtsp-movie.mov” with the
following single line of information:
rtsptext rtsp://nway-server.ncast.com/my-movies/my-archive.mp4
Then simply create a link to this movie on the web page:
http://www.ncast.com/movies/my-rtsp-movie.mov
The web browser will create a blank page and then will play the movie.
