streaming webcam via rtp protocol - ffmpeg

i am trying to stream and receive my webcam feed on two terminal on same laptop.For this purpose I am using the following commands:-
foo.sdp:
SDP:
v=0
o=- 0 0 IN IP4 127.0.0.1
s=No Name
c=IN IP4 127.0.0.1
t=0 0
a=tool:libavformat 55.2.100
m=video 1235 RTP/AVP 96
a=rtpmap:96 H264/90000
a=fmtp:96 packetization-mode=1
Transmitting:
ffmpeg -re -i /dev/video0 -r 24 -b 50k -s 858x500 -f mulaw -f rtp rtp://127.0.0.1:3000> foo.sdp
Receiving:
ffplay -i foo.sdp
While transmission seems to be working fine , but when i am using receiving command I am getting en error :
Protocol not on whitelist 'file,crypto'!/0
foo.sdp: Invalid data found when processing input

try add
-protocol_whitelist file,udp,rtp

How to use ffmpeg to record video from SDP?

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 and I have the following SDP Offer from Kurento Media Server. The offer is saved to the file a.sdp :
v=0
o=- 3831476180 3831476180 IN IP4 172.31.46.122
s=Kurento Media Server

Then, I'm calling ffmpeg to record this flow to a file :
ffmpeg -max_delay 5000 -reorder_queue_size 16384 -protocol_whitelist file,crypto,udp,rtp -re -i a.sdp -vcodec copy -acodec aac -y output.mp4
172.31.46.122 is the local ip adress and I'm running ffmpeg from the same machine as SDP offer. So ffmpeg has access to this ip adress.
I'm getting the error :
bind failed: Address already in use.
a.sdp: Invalid data found when processing input
Does anyone know how to solve that please ?
Thanks.
Cheers,
Try one of these or both:
ffplay a.sdp -protocol_whitelist "file,udp,rtp"
ffmpeg -i a.sdp -protocol_whitelist "file,udp,rtp" -vcodec copy -acodec aac -y output.mp4
Does it work if you reorder the parameters so that the input file is first?

How to use ffplay to play a rtp stream without sdp?

Is there any command line options that I can use to tell ffplay the video stream format of the RTP stream?
With a simple SDP file like bellow, I can play the stream very well.
c=IN IP4 0.0.0.0
m=video 9170 RTP/AVP 96
a=rtpmap:96 H264/90000

Missing packets error when streaming rtsp to rtmp using ffmpeg

I'm using ffmpeg to do RTSP to RTMP streaming, the input is an sdp file describing one video stream and one audio stream, when I test the RTSP using ffplay,it works fine
ffplay -protocol_whitelist "file,udp,rtp" -strict -2 -i media.sdp
but when I switch to ffmpeg to do streaming, I got lot of packet missing errors
ffmpeg -protocol_whitelist "file,udp,rtp" -strict -2 -i media.sdp -c copy -f flv "rtmp://liveaddress"
error log:
[sdp # 000001f1f4cea400] max delay reached. need to consume packet

[sdp # 000001f1f4cea400] max delay reached. need to consume packet

the sdp file:

After some research on the web, I have found a solution:
add a -buffer_size command arg to ffmpeg cause my H264 video from RTSP server has variable bit rate I guess.
I had a similar problem, solved with -rtsp_transport tcp -protocol_whiteliste rtp,file,udp,tcp

Convert MJPEG RTP stream to MP4 RTP stream with FFMPEG - how?

I'm already searching for a solution for several days how to convert an MJPEG rtp stream to MP4 rtp stream.
Already tried something like this:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://192.168.10.8:554/stream1/mobotix.mjpeg -rtsp_transport tcp -f H264 udp://192.168.10.5:8554
ffmpeg then shows me like it's doing something...
frame= 612 fps= 11 q=25.0 size= 3243kB time=00:00:56.00 bitrate= 474.4kbits/s dup=275 drop=0 speed=0.981x
Then I tried with VLC to open udp://192.168.10.5:8554
but it opens nothing simply the bar is running left/right forever.
Do I need something like Simple RTP-Server (https://github.com/ossrs/srs) and then stream to that?
Best would be, when ffmpeg could host rtp itself...
Here is what I used to stream a local mkv to RTP
ffmpeg -re -thread_queue_size 4 -i input.mkv -strict -2 -vcodec copy -an -f rtp rtp://127.0.0.1:6005 -acodec copy -vn -sdp_file my_sdp_file -f rtp rtp://127.0.0.1:7005
I then had to copy the generated sdp file to the client and used ffmpeg to save the stream to disk
ffmpeg -protocol_whitelist "file,rtp,udp" -i my_sdp_file -strict -2 saved_rtp_stream.mp4
For completeness, here are the contents of the sdp file
$ cat my_sdp_file
SDP:
v=0
o=- 0 0 IN IP4 127.0.0.1
s=No Name
t=0 0
a=tool:libavformat 57.83.100
m=video 6005 RTP/AVP 96

FFmpeg (avconv) rtp stream, how to attach sdp file?

I have a rtp live stream whit h.254 video, I want to copy it to file I use:
avconv -i rtp://#192.168.0.34:60005 -an -acodec copy -vcodec copy abc.mp4
But I have an error:
[rtp # 0x1f6cfe0] Unable to receive RTP payload type 96 without an SDP file describing it
That's ok, because avconv don't know what is inside.
My sdp file:
v=0
o=- 20966096445 1 IN IP4 0.0.0.0
t=0 0
a=type:broadcast
a=control:*
a=x-qt-text-nam:brovotech
a=x-qt-text-inf:live/sub
a=range:npt=0-
m=video 0 RTP/AVP 96
c=IN IP4 0.0.0.0
b=AS:8
a=rtpmap:96 H264/90000
a=fmtp:96 packetization-mode=1;profile-level-id=4d001e;sprop-parameter-sets=Z00AHpWoLASZ,aO48gA==
How can I attach sdp file for FFmpeg? Or set some arguments that will describe the stream?
Just use avconv -i camera.sdp
camera.sdp:
...
o=- 20966096445 1 IN IP4 my_ip
...
m=video my_port RTP/AVP 96
