Hello,

Can exiftool extract metadata in real time from a streamed video ? (Like RTP/RTSP). I don't have a file but a link.

Best regards

Exiftool doesn't have the ability to connect to the internet, so you can't just give it the link.  You could try piping the output from another program (FFmpeg maybe?) to see if it can do so.  See this example which pipes the output from cURL into exiftool.
"It didn't work" isn't helpful. What was the exact command used and the output.
Read FAQ #3 and use that cmd
Please use the Code button for exiftool output

Please include your OS/Exiftool version/filetype
