Streaming Video From Android

android camera video-streaming rtp

I'm trying to stream video from the Android phone, which should be watched in an mediaplayer. I've been looking at http://www.mattakis.com/blog/kisg/20090708/broadcasting-video-with-android-without-writing-to-the-file-system which seems to be a dead end since it send the raw file data, and not a streamable format.

Then I tried using some code from SipDroid, more specific; parts of VideoCamera.java, RtpPacket.java and RtpSocket.java, which gives a stream on UDP, however these is not playable in i.e. mplayer(can't detect the codec). Wireshark tells that it is a UDP packet and not a RTP packet so something might be missing?

I'm kind'a stuck, have you any suggestions how to get past this bump?

Right click on the packet in Wireshark and select the decode as option. Then select rtp. Now you can see RTP packets in Wireshark.
