I tried to make the headers be included in local to global order. This way any potential missing includes are detected making it easier to make changes to header location and includes. |

uvgRTP
uvgRTP is an Real-Time Transport Protocol (RTP) library written in C++ with a focus on simple to use and high-efficiency media delivery over the internet. It features an intuitive and easy-to-use Application Programming Interface (API), built-in support for transporting Versitile Video Coding (VVC), High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC), Advanced Video Coding (AVC) encoded video and Opus encoded audio. uvgRTP also supports End-to-End Encrypted (E2EE) media delivery using the combination of Secure RTP (SRTP) and ZRTP. According to our measurements uvgRTP is able to reach a goodput of 600 MB/s (4K at 700fps) for HEVC stream when measured in LAN. The CPU usage is relative to the goodput value, and therefore smaller streams have a very small CPU usage.
uvgRTP is licensed under the permissive BSD 2-Clause License. For SRTP/ZRTP support, uvgRTP uses Crypto++ library. Currently uvgRTP is currently not under active development, but we will do our best to fix any issues and we warmly welcome any contributions to the project.
Currently supported specifications:
- RFC 3350: RTP: A Transport Protocol for Real-Time Applications
- RFC 7798: RTP Payload Format for High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC)
- RFC 6184: RTP Payload Format for H.264 Video
- RFC 7587: RTP Payload Format for the Opus Speech and Audio Codec
- RFC 3711: The Secure Real-time Transport Protocol (SRTP)
- RFC 6189: ZRTP: Media Path Key Agreement for Unicast Secure RTP
- Draft: RTP Payload Format for Versatile Video Coding (VVC)
The original version of uvgRTP is based on Marko Viitanen's fRTPlib library.
