- V – Version. Identifies the RTP version.
- RTP版本号
- P – Padding. When set, the packet contains one or more additional padding octets at the end which are not part of the payload.
- 是否填充,如果设置为允许填充的话,在包的末尾填充一个或多个字节,这些填充的字节不是有效负载的一部分。
- X – Extension bit. When set, the fixed header is followed by exactly one header extension, with a defined format.
- 扩充位,如果设置为允许的话,固定头结构后面(即包的12个字节后面,有效负载的前面)紧跟着一个扩展头结构,该结构是已定义的一种格式
- CSRC count (CC) -Contains the number of CSRC identifiers that follow the fixed header.
- 数据源的个数(即源的个数),如果只有一个源那么此时的值为0。
- M – Marker. The interpretation of the marker is defined by a profile. It is intended to allow significant events such as frame boundaries to be marked in the packet stream.
- 标识,在文档中是这样定义的,它有意标识重要的事物比如:在流媒体中标识一帧数据的边界(结束或开始)。
- Payload type – Identifies the format of the RTP payload and determines its interpretation by the application. A profile specifies a default static mapping of payload type codes to payload formats. Additional payload type codes may be defined dynamically through non-RTP means.
- 有效负载,RTP数据的有效负载(不包括头12个字节),由具体的应用程序来确定负载的格式和意义。官方文档里有表格说明,该表格显示了格式代码和具体格式的对应关系,附加的格式代码可能不在RTP协议里定义。
- Sequence number – Increments by one for each RTP data packet sent, and may be used by the receiver to detect packet loss and to restore packet sequence.
- 数据包序号,发送的RTP数据包序号,接收端可用它来检查丢失的数据包和确定保存数据包次序。
- Timestamp – Reflects the sampling instant of the first octet in the RTP data packet. The sampling instant must be derived from a clock that increments monotonically and linearly in time to allow synchronization and jitter calculations.
- 时间戳, 纪录了RTP数据包中第一个字节的采样时间,采样时间必须源自一个时间增量且允许同步和计算。
- SSRC – Synchronization source. This identifier is chosen randomly, with the intent that no two synchronization sources within the same RTP session will have the same SSRC identifier.
- 同步标识, 是一个随机数,在同一个RTP会话中只有一个同步标识。
- CSRC – Contributing source identifiers list. Identifies the contributing sources for the payload contained in this packet.
