[QUESTION] H265 support needed

[gijsbeijer]

It would be great if the examples would contain samples that would work for h265 streams as well (for me personally the rtsp multistream would be great).

I've been trying to change the existing code to get h265 supported but without any luck. Below is the log of the part where it shows that theres a mismatch in content-types.

Does anyone have an h265 (multi-)stream running??

The Producer C SDK (the CPP SDK is a thin wrapper over the C SDK) contains samples for h265, here's the README for how to use h265 (there are sample h265 frames provided as well): https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-kinesis-video-streams-producer-c/blob/master/README.md#run-samples

You can look there and try to copy over the differences between the H264 and H265 variant in the C Producer SDK to your use case for producer sdk c++. It seems your question is requesting a sample update in the C++ SDK to support. I will mark this as an enhancement and move this to a discussion as it's not an open question / bug.

Hi I tried to get it to run with adjusting the cpp files according to the C version but as I am not a native C++ or C dev I'm probably missing something.

If we could get a sample with h265 running that would be great!
