-## RtspServer
-A RTSP server and pusher based on C++11
+## RtspServer
 
-[中文介绍](https://github.com/PHZ76/RtspServer/blob/master/README_CN.md)
+A lightweight RTSP server and pusher library written in C++11.
+
+This repository is maintained by the [ZoneMinder](https://github.com/ZoneMinder) project and is the RTSP server used by ZoneMinder's `zms`/monitor streaming. It originated as a fork of [PHZ76/RtspServer](https://github.com/PHZ76/RtspServer); the original project has been inactive since 2023, so this repository is now developed independently. Many thanks to [PHZ76](https://github.com/PHZ76) for the original implementation.
 
 ## Features
- - Support Linux and Windows platforms.
- - Support H.264/H.265/G711A/AAC
- - Support unicast(rtp over udp, rtp over rtsp), multicast
- - Support digest authentication
+
+- Linux, Windows, and macOS platforms
+- Video: H.264, H.265, VP8, AV1 (including a passthrough mode for pre-formed RTP payloads)
+- Audio: AAC, G.711 A-law, G.711 µ-law
+- Simultaneous audio and video in one session
+- Unicast (RTP over UDP, RTP over RTSP/TCP interleaved) and multicast
+- RTSP push/publish over TCP
+- Digest authentication
+- Connection keep-alive/heartbeat detection (unicast)
+- `sprop-parameter-sets` in H.264/H.265 SDP for faster stream start-up
 
 ## Requirements
-- Compiler support c++11, gcc4.8/vs2015 or above.
 
-## Example
- - [rtsp-server](https://github.com/PHZ76/RtspServer/blob/master/example/rtsp_h264_file.cpp)
- - [DesktopSharing](https://github.com/PHZ76/DesktopSharing)
+- A C++11 compiler (gcc 4.8+/clang or Visual Studio 2015+)
+- CMake 3.10 or later
+
+## Examples
+
+- [rtsp_server.cpp](example/rtsp_server.cpp) — serve a live stream
+- [rtsp_h264_file.cpp](example/rtsp_h264_file.cpp) — serve an H.264 elementary stream from a file
+- [rtsp_pusher.cpp](example/rtsp_pusher.cpp) — push a stream to another RTSP server

+## FAQ
+
+- **How do I stream a media file (mp4, mkv, ...)?** This library does not parse container formats. Use FFmpeg (or similar) to demux/read frames and feed them to a `MediaSession`. `rtsp_h264_file.cpp` shows the pattern for a raw H.264 stream.
+- **The RTSP client connects but receives no data.** Capture the session with Wireshark and inspect the RTP packets; also double-check byte order (endianness) when packing frames on unusual platforms.

-其他问题
--
-* 如何转发或推流媒体文件? 项目目前没有实现对媒体文件的解析, 可以通过ffmpeg对文件进行帧读取再进行转发。
-* RTSP连接成功没有收到数据? (1)可以使用Wireshark分析RTP包。(2)确定系统的大小端模式。
