Bind on port 554

[tanguy]

Hello,

How can I bind to a system port like 554?

My process needs root rights to create such a socket but should be run with user permissions.

I think of using seteuid function.

My chain is divided into two chains: appsrc and appsink.

First appsrc chain is set in playing state and creates files that shouldn't have root permissions.

I call gst_rtsp_server_set_service(server, port); with root user and just after gst_rtsp_server_get_bound_port(server); but it returns -1?

Thanks,

Tanguy Mezzano

It's not a gstreamer specific or problem but this should provide some hints
