## Read from the server
### From VLC and Ubuntu
The VLC shipped with Ubuntu 21.10 doesn't support playing RTSP due to a [license issue](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=982299).
To overcome the issue, remove the default VLC instance and install the snap version:
```
sudo apt purge -y vlc
snap install vlc
```
Then use it to read the stream:
```
vlc rtsp://localhost:8554/mystream
```
