I have a quick question about the AWS SDK. For reference, I am writing an Android app in Kotlin. I see there are examples of sending video feed from an Android Camera Source to AWS, which works from what I could do. But I couldn't find an example of a way to send an RTSP stream directly to Kinesis Video Streams and not the Android device's camera. For some background, I have a camera that sends me an RTSP to my phone, and I can view the stream with something like the VLC library, but I want to send this video feed to AWS so that I can view the stream in AWS. Is this possible, or would this require a lot of workarounds? And are there any examples that people who had success in this application? Thank you!
