Open source implementation of Audio Video Transport Protocol (AVTP) specified in IEEE 1722-2016 spec.
Libavtp is under BSD License. For more information see LICENSE file.
Before building libavtp make sure you have all the required software installed in your system. Below are the requirements and their tested versions:
- Meson >= 0.43
- Ninja >= 1.8.2
The first step to build libavtp is to generate the build system files.
$ meson build
Then build libavtp by running the following command. The building artifacts will be created under the build/ in the top-level directory.
$ ninja -C build
To install libavtp on your system run:
$ sudo ninja -C build install
AVTP protocol defines several AVTPDU type formats (see Table 6 from IEEE 1722-2016 spec). Libavtp doesn't support all of them yet. The list of supported formarts is:
- AAF (PCM encapsulation only)
- CRF
- CVF (H.264 only)
The examples/ directory in the top-level directory provides example
applications which demonstrate the libavtp functionalities. To build an
example application run $ ninja -C build <example name>.
Information about what exactly each example application does and how it works is provided in the beginning of the .c file from each application.
