An RTSP client will establish a TCP connection to an RTSP server, via the Traffic Manager, over which RTSP requests will be issued. The figure below shows the usual layout of a RTSP connection. The Traffic Manager is able to recognize and manage RTSP traffic, allowing users to load balance a pool of media servers that handle this type of traffic. RTSP is used by client applications such as QuickTime, MPlayer, VLC, Windows Media Player and RealPlayer. Some servers also use the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) combined with RTSP in the same conference. Applications based on RTSP act as a video-like remote control panel for multimedia servers.
The Real-Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) allows a client to establish and control either a single or several time-synchronized streams of continuous media, such as audio and video servers.
