MediaSuite.NET

MediaSuite.NET is the leading independent Multimedia Framework for Microsoft .NET. Providing unmatched performance and flexibility for all your Multimedia needs. Self contained and independent of other frameworks such as Directshow or Media Foundation, MediaSuite.NET features all aspects usually only provided through native frameworks and functionality sold by multiple vendors. With MediaSuite, everything is in the box. Ready for use.

Protocols

RTSP.NET
Real-Time Streaming Protocol

Is a RFC 2326 compliant software stack for the Microsoft .NET framework. You can use it from any .NET-compatible programming language, such as C#, VB.NET or C++/CLI.
Fully compatible with ALL major streaming servers.
Supported RTSP methods:
- OPTIONS
- DESCRIBE
- SETUP
- PLAY
- ANNOUNCE
- RECORD
- TEARDOWN
RTSP.NET supports all common message headers, along with generic headers. So you can easily introduce new ones as the standard progresses or use alternative "x-" headers to convey extra information.
RTSP.NET contains Helper classes to boost productivity and minimizes redundant work. Through the RTSP Manager, it is very easy to create complex streaming scenarios with just a few lines of code and a video on demand application will need no more than 10 lines of code to get a video stream played.
You can specify and modify all parameters of an RTSP message, i.e.: tweak start/end times, send customized information to the server, etc.
Additional Features:
- Basic & Digest Authentication
- Manual & Automatic Authentication

SDP.NET
Session Description Protocol

Is a RFC 2326 compliant software stack for the Microsoft .NET framework.
SDP is used to convey media capabilities between media endpoints. It can be found in protocols such as RTSP and SIP.
Example of an SDP message:
v=0
o=- 1119724088685636606 3 IN IP4 10.10.0.10
s=Streamcoders Media Endpoint
c=IN IP4 10.10.0.10
t=0 0
m=video 23150 RTP/AVP 100
b=AS:200
a=X-predecbufsize:35000
a=rtpmap:100 H264/90000
m=audio 23152 RTP/AVP 0
a=rtpmap:0 PCMU/8000/1
SDP.NET supports all SDP header types, as well as generic attributes.
