About:
oRTP is a C-language library designed for implementing the Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP, RFC3550). It provides a robust framework for sending and receiving audio/video streams over IP networks. The library is highly portable and serves as a foundational component for multimedia applications like VoIP.
Key Features:
  • Supports RFC3550 and RFC1889 standards
  • Adaptive jitter buffer management
  • Portable C library with minimal dependencies
  • Supports SDES and RTCP encryption
Use Cases:
  • Building custom VoIP clients and servers
  • Implementing real-time audio/video streaming applications
  • Integrating RTP functionality into embedded systems
Alternatives:
  • libavformat – Part of FFmpeg, primarily focused on container formats rather than pure RTP/RTCP stack implementation.
  • GStreamer – A much larger multimedia framework that includes RTP plugins, whereas oRTP is a lightweight, dedicated library.
