This module is developed from rtsp-simple-server to be able to run on IoT Edge.

The module runs as a IoT Edge container named RtspServer. While running the container image, you can publish live streams with RTSP. And read live streams with RTSP.

It can be used as a RTSP source in Azure Video Analyzer on Edge.

This module can be used with the Azure cloud native application WeDX Flow to simplify module management.

Minimum hardware requirements: Linux x64, arm64 and arm32 OS, 1GB of RAM, 500Mb of storage
