CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI(3)                            Library Functions Manual

NAME
       CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI - RTSP stream URI

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI, char *URI);

DESCRIPTION
       Set the stream URI to operate on by passing a char * . For example, a
       single session may be controlling rtsp://foo/twister/audio and
       rtsp://foo/twister/video and the application can switch to the
       appropriate stream using this option. If unset, libcurl defaults to
       operating on generic server options by passing '*' in the place of the
       RTSP Stream URI. This option is distinct from CURLOPT_URL(3). When
       working with RTSP, the CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI(3) indicates what URL to
       send to the server in the request header while the CURLOPT_URL(3)
       indicates where to make the connection to. (e.g. the CURLOPT_URL(3) for
       the above examples might be set to rtsp://foo/twister

       The application does not have to keep the string around after setting
       this option.

DEFAULT
       "*"

PROTOCOLS
       RTSP

EXAMPLE
       int main(void)
       {

           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "rtsp://example.com/");
           curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_RTSP_STREAM_URI,
                            "rtsp://foo.example.com/twister/video");
           res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
           curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
         }
       }
