Exoplayer - unable to display RTSP url (Black screen)

[QuentinCln]

Current behavior

unable to display video (Black screen) when uri source is set to an RSTP uri
Same behavior with Android MediaPlayer.

react-native: 0.55.4
react-native-video: 2.1.1

Reproduction steps

Also tried to pass const isNetwork = !!(uri && uri.match(/^https?:/)); to true, but no effect

        <Video
            source={{
              uri: "rtsp://184.72.239.149/vod/mp4:BigBuckBunny_175k.mov"
              // uri: "rtsp://95.253.236.60/live/ch00_0"
            }}
            rate={1.0}
            volume={1.0}
            muted={false}
            paused={false}
            resizeMode="cover"
            repeat={true}
            onLoadStart={() => {
              console.log("onLoadStart");
            }}
            onLoad={() => {
              console.log("onLoad");
            }}
            onProgress={() => {
              console.log("onProgress");
            }}
            onEnd={() => {
              console.log("onEnd");
            }}
            onError={() => console.log("onError")}
            onBuffer={() => console.log("isBuffering")}
            style={{ width: Dimensions.get("window").width, height: 300 }}
          />

@QuentinCln Per google/ExoPlayer#55, RTSP isn't supported by ExoPlayer yet, however there is a PR open to add support in google/ExoPlayer#3854. Once that lands and ExoPlayer puts out a new release that includes that PR, we should be able to get support automatically. I'll keep an eye on it and update. Clearly we need to document which formats are supported on which players, I'll add that to my list of things to do.

@pheromone That URL isn't a RTSP URL. Please open a separate issue for this and add info about what kind of error you are getting. That URL is working fine for me.

Thanks @cobarx for the informations. I finally made a wrapper around VideoView that manages RTSP
meanwhile

@QuentinCln Checking in 8 months latest and ExoPlayer still hasn't merged in that PR for RTSP support.

Any chance you can elaborate on your VideoView wrapper solution?

Thanks!
