SIP Information

[iamthesgt]

I was reading through the SIP documentation and was confused on a few things. I can't figure out what code to implement to open a transaction between a server and client. What IP address and port and what encoding should I use (for a video server).
Thanks for any help.

Go have a look here live555.com you find some useful info about video streaming RTP (and/or RTSP or SIP) & an already written library. Also take a look at videolan

Hope this helps

I apologize, I should have specified. I am using the reSIProcate library. Looking through the documentation, it seems I need to use IP address 192.0.2.4, port 5060. However, the only instructions I saw to implement a connection between server and client was not C++ code (example below).

INVITE sip:[e-mail] SIP/2.0
Via: SIP/2.0/UDP bobspc.domain.net:5060; recieved=192.0.2.4

How do I implement the connection using the reSIProcate library? And what encoding should I use?

This is a c++ forum for c++ related support, the syntax you posted looks to me like command line instructions specific to the reSIProcate server or whatever.

Maybe you could try asking these questions on there support forum &/or read the documentation to get the answers your looking for.

Sorry I can't be of further help.

In reading the documentation, and talking to some other people, I found out I basically need to know how to (in C++) receive/place a call in SIP/using reSIProcate. In that, I need to know how to specify what port, ip address, and media type.

Have you setup the sip server on your network Using Repro http web interface & verified its working correctly using command line calls to the server. To send requests to the server via C++ code you'll need to add some header file/s to your project to communicate with the server or use a library such as cURL/Winsock to send requests to the server.

I can't really help any further because I've not used reSIProcate , try their mailing list for help on code examples, headers files etc...
