METHOD FOR ENCAPSULATING AND TRANSMITTING STREAMING MEDIA PACKET, AND DEVICE FOR PROCESSING STREAMING MEDIA

摘要

Disclosed are a method for encapsulating and transmitting a streaming media packet, and a device for processing the streaming media. In the present invention, a sending end encapsulates a packet, including for each packet of the media code stream: writing a media code stream identifier into the packet header of the packet according to the media type of the packet; writing a packet serial number into the packet header of the packet according to the serial number of the packet in the media code stream corresponding to the media code stream identifier; and writing a packet format load length identifier into the packet header of the packet according to the total length of the packet; and the sending end sending each encapsulated packet to one or more receiving ends via the same UDP channel. The present invention can enable multiple paths of media sources to be transmitted in the same UDP/IP network channel, and can provide functions such as extraction, combination, and lost packet compensation for the program media code stream, realizing the objects of encapsulating and transmitting multi-media packets highly efficiently and with high quality.
