Get or Set the device's video/audio streaming protocol version.
Excpet the standart streaming protocol like RTSP/RTP, there are two non-standard streaming protocols in the encoder devices. One is "TCP 1.0" which is out of fashion and available in all platformW encoders. Refer to SED and CAM series (not include the SED26xx).
The other one is "TCP 2.0" which is the new one. In all platformA and platformT devices and multiple channel video servers, only this protocol is available.In all platformW encoders, the V2_STREAMING_TYPE is a read/write command and PROTOCOL_TYPE is a read-only command.
In all PlatformA and PlatformT encoders and multiple channel video servers, these two commands are read-only and 2 is returned always.
Consider to cooperate with software partners, these URLs might be used to set to TCP2.0 to the platformA, platformT encoders and Multiple Channel Video servers. The error return message will cause they fail to connect to the devices. Therefore, the return message of these URL commands have special arrangement. Refer to the return of message section.
1 : TCP 1.0 streaming protocol
2 : TCP 2.0 streaming protocol
V2_STREAMING_TYPE='2' or PROTOCOL_TYPE='2
OK: V2_STREAMING_TYPE='2'
or
ERROR: V2_STREAMING_TYPE='2'
Note that the OK: V2_STREAMING_TYPE='2' is returned for V2_STREAMING_TYPE=2 in all devices which they support TCP2.0 only.
The ERROR: V2_STREAMING_TYPE='2' is returned for V2_STREAMING_TYPE=n where n is not 2 in all devices which they support TCP2.0 only.
These rules is applied to PROTOCOL_TYPE and V2_STREAMING_TYPE URLs.
