Is rtsp mjpeg stream player the easiest way?

Question

I need to do some kind of project involving a camera. I have a stream in the format rtsp: // ip: port / stream, which I can see on external ie VLC players.

What I want to do is make a simple Java client to read and play this stream. I have been looking for some solution for a long time and nothing is suitable for my need. JMFseems will be out of date as 10 years, other solutions seem to be difficult for this simple (I guess?) Problem.

Answer 1

For my Java project at work, I am currently using Xuggler to read in the RTSP stream in the exact URL format you are using. It worked well for me on windows, mac, and linux, and a few lines of code were added to the project.
